I suspect I'm repeating something already said but I'm fully in the camp of just don't run castlerock, ever. I'm usually a quantity over quality person (within reason and yes that's not mistyped) but given the line that forms there when conditions are good, I don't think you lose much quantity with the chair not turning🤷‍♂️
I love the hike and solitude you get rewarded for. Agree.

Any intel on what the problem is with the castlerock lift? Is it that they just havent gotten around to it?
NRX is a frankenstein HSQ which is always difficult to deal with and GMX they apparently had problems diagnosing the issue. But CR is a fixed grip which is not that old. It seems odd that whatever the problem is has taken so long to rectify.

I think with being short staffed they were focused on the other lifts before CR. With no snowmaking and hiking access it's probably low on the priority list.
