that bus one didn't last long did it. i liked that one

[@BeautifuLakesStreamsBiologists]

6:01 the Government Camp to Timberline sky bus! Our home Mt Hood Oregon. Great footage of the skiers at the time along with the dog! Thank you!

If someone wonder what is the song at 0:00. Its side stepping by nicholas glennie smith. Fun fact the song at 8:55 is side stepping b. Many people think its the same song but no.

[@Retikulum01]

Or the beginning is b and end is a idk.

[@Cbob64]

The one over the pass is located in Val D'isere. First time is quite impressive!

[@michaeldougfir9807]

Yes, I did enjoy this second selection as well. The opening scenes made me think of old, original Blue Ridge. They have since rebuilt totally, but at one time this may not have been very far off. I'm sending this to my sister. She will love it!

[@PorterTheFanCollector]

1:02, used to be scared of the rollback video but I just got used to it.

[@georgie1240]

i’ve been on vanoise express (the big cable car). great views! definitely prefer les arcs over la plagne, though!

[@conradmward]

No, it was just friction and less weight on the chairs that eventually brought it to a stop. The full scale rollback was actually accidental; they only wanted the chairs to go backwards for a few seconds, but something went wrong and they couldn't get it to stop.

[@Retikulum01]

I thought it was intentional! Never knew that I was accidental

[@johnmeye]

Interesting combination of music😉. 👍

[@andiekerr1805]

You should have a look at the dachstein glacier gondelbahn, it has a platform for standing outside on the roof. Only one of my kids would join me on the top, where it was very windy/cold and a tiny bit terrifying!

[@M4TTYICE]

Good video dude :) Where do u get all of those random clips of ski lifts from?

[@conradmward]

Neat. It's funny, but the only Riblet chairlift I have ever ridden is a triple on the East coast (not many on the East coast) with a safety bar and everything. But I want to ride one of their classic double chairs...and hold on tight! Thanks for the comment.

[@jeroenblonk]

why the hell did i just watch 9 minutes of skilifts?

[@emjaynie2]

Rollback is one of the most frightening things to happen to a lift. Thank goodness it can't happen today.

[@thomascarter7055]

it happened today at sugarloaf

[@breckr1121]

It can happen, just not destructive on detach lifts.

[@jahterminatedlmao5473]

uhhh

[@PorterTheFanCollector]

0:30, we miss you, G1. Rest in peace.

[@devlinlynden1370]

Lol the bus one they really did just put a bus on a line

[@Noname-rl2wb]

The bus does not look real

[@greasyrails2571]

It’s clickbait you dingus

[@tvanwestrenen]

Thx for posting! Can I point you for interesting cableways to China? They are catching up quickly on this subject too. Last year I went there on a trip and found out Tianmen Mountain cableway. Very spectacular ('the longest in the world' and pretty steep). And also interesting are the cableways in the nearby Wulingyuan national park. But, still European technology at this stage; Poma and Dopplmayer lifts. O, and George Baker Selections 'Una Paloma Blanca' over the intercom. :-]

[@conradmward]

Yes, that would be me. Thanks for the support!

[@conradmward]

It wasn't replaced, just removed. You can still see where it went on the trail map, though. The former path of the Skiway is now a trail called "Glade."

[@conradmward]

Thanks for letting me know. You probably don't have annotations enabled because someone else already corrected me. Instead of going to the hassle of changing the captions, I simply added an annotation noting the mistake.

[@conradmward]

I think I may have found a video of it, it certainly is a very impressive lift.

[@peepa47]

How does the first one close or how do you get in?

[@MAREKISBACKAGAIN]

the mount snow gondola started at the snow lake lodge hotel and went over a lake ..!

[@balazslengyel6950]

In Obertauern Austria there is a lift that has both chairs and gondolas on the same cabel

[@aestheticcruise8807]

Balazs Lengyel same with Whistler Blackcomb BC

[@uuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh]

Same with Copper, Colorado

[@breckr1121]

It's called a chondola or a combi, not uncommon.

[@rudrecciah]

Pretty common actually

[@llamboghinii]

excellent video bro! Did you upload the Copper mountain map to skimap.org as well? usernames look familiar

[@nateverge1167]

0:48 They showed us this at my lifty orientation.

[@conradmward]

Thanks for subscribing :)

[@FaithandActiondotnet]

Thanks again!

[@NOSEBLOB]

Did you really need to put the bold black captions in the middle of the picture?

[@mandarin1257]

They don't have to be black.

[@cedricye1767]

[@talensmith573]

The crash test one is still at winter park.

[@conradmward]

No. Thanks for the suggestion, though.

[@b43xoit]

What did they hope to learn from the destructive testing?

[@Retikulum01]

Safety

[@emjaynie2]

Not all of them "ski lifts", but loved the bus anyway!

[@AnotherSwissYoutubeUser]

6:50 Zoo Kōlmarden, Sweeden.

[@v.emil.v]

Beem there

[@Crazy_Alex_7667]

How u get the captions to do thst

[@stewieatb]

The lift on the other side of the Aiguille du Midi (from Plan de l'Aiguille to the summit) is as impressive if not more so than the lift across the Vallee Blanche which you feature. I believe it's the longest and steepest single-span telepherique in the world, climbing about 1600m, and puts you only a hundred feet or so from the hard climbing on the North face of the Midi, in particular the Frendo Spur.

[@conradmward]

Okay, next video!

[@conradmward]

Yeah, that is totally interesting. I've seen a few pictures and videos and they look amazing. But there isn't really a good place to find information on all the Chinese lifts so there are probably even more that we don't even know about. Let me know if you know of a place to find information on lifts in China!

[@DavidVitrano]

4:05 What's this lift called?

[@MrsHgLamp]

Amanzing ❤️😍

[@ArturHolindak]

4:05 the lift is in Slovakia not Romania

[@conradmward]

Thanks for the correction. It appears that you are right.

[@OneHonestGuy]

The music was spot on. -nobody

[@Leeuwke131]

Vanoise express rules. been in there when I was in La Plagne. It connects La Plagne with Les Arcs

[@conradmward]

It's too bad I couldn't find a video of that.

[@JanikvonRotz]

I love skiing.

[@lucas_geerts]

where do you find this?

[@bchydrotransit]

what's the music called at 0:01

[@CombraStudios]

I'm gonna hack your account. lol jk no 'm not :)

[@caribsunsets]

Where is the one that carried automobiles?

[@bdjhhvdjvcndvgd4993]

Why instead of making #8 just dig a hole and make everything a little bit closer to the ground. Would of saved so much money

[@brigittekupka5951]

If it were cheapter to dig a hole directly on the edge of town intp a mountain, they problably would have done it, don't you think?

[@stupidestskier20]

Is that a... BUS! 6:16 I've seen everything now...

[@markdirigible9062]

oh, God! Rope tows. They really sucked. Soaking wet mittens and being pulled downward by the rope and if your grip wasn't tight you slipped backward on the rope...

[@PotatoGunsRule]

Rope tows? Oh ya! I called ours (now replaced) the "Pull You on Your Face Tow." LOL The conveyor belt, AKA, "magic carpet lift" is the best thing ever for beginners.

[@klaus9714]

Maybe you don`t know what a SKIlift is...

[@hankim68]

No Saas Fee funicular?

[@juliaalvarez537]

Nice

[@conradmward]

Crazy huh? Search "mount hood skiway" to find the full video.

[@harryfletcher4697]

More plz

[@flodumetro]

tres interessant

[@Thelift2013]

the car funitel is actually in slovakia, and not romania. i live in romania, and i know that something like that ropeway is too great to exist in romania, due to the corrupt bufoons of politicians...

[@Isdraken]

@1:10 somebody press the emergency stop, maybe?

[@manuelhuber194]

This was a destructive test, to see where the limits of the lift are. Noone was injured. See the video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q2W6gYaQpM-nr6c

[@stupidestskier20]

Nah, it's running at a good speed Gotta get to that POW-DAH :)

"ski" lift.

[@girlboss3127]

What the hell I just watched? This is bullcrap, these lifts are unique: #DoppelmayrSkiLifts Watch this guys! :D

[@emjaynie2]

I just watched that. And NO, not a single one of those chairs is unique. They're completely normal at most ski areas today. Hooded chairs, 8-packs, 4-man gondolas - sorry, not unique at all.

[@HappyJigg]

I think a bus suspended by cables is unique.

[@jasonrothman8480]

well you kinda just found some videos and put them together... not impressed
