Steamboat, CO: Elkhead Express - Take 2

This Doppelmayr Uni-G high-speed quad replaced a Yan quad in 2016, and the Yan quad went to China Peak in California one year later. This lift is the main source of egress from the Sunshine pod, but the Wild Blue gondola also provides a way back to the base. The lift has 53 chairs and 10 towers. Estimated speed is 866 fpm.
Recorded Mar. 30, 2024.

As fun as it seems, I’ll most likely be back home on the east coast.

@@TwinSkiingLiftsRidesalright but I think at least someday maybe in the future you should check it out but I understand but maybe next year or fall or whenever you have time but definitely you should check it out

man i hate how some bars have so many of those stick things. like a few are enough if you want to separate people.

[@TwinSkiingLiftsRides]

@@parakeet6916 These stick things keep younger children from slipping through the chair. By far one of the safest safety bar designs I’ve seen.
