dude its so wild to see 10 year old comments. Do you think they thought about the fact that we could be here a decade later reading what they said?

just about a daily necessity at Turoa Skifield New Zealand as the weather is straight off the sea - the De-icing crew are some of the first ones heading up in the morning. Winter storm ice frequently bought down cables off the T bar lifts, and detachable chairs are now removed prior to the storm (though we did not have such a thing in my days on the hill). Made for exciting times and stories - sure miss those days.

I haven't made it up yet this season, thanks for keeping the mountain in good condition.

Wow that's a lot of work, although it seems like life would be a lot easier for mechanics if they added chair parking for those two
@csabasipos65255 жыл бұрын
Yep. I am not sure if I have ever seen a detachable chairlift without parking in western-europe. Especially leaving the chairs out in a storm like this... Not just the ice, but the wind load as well.
@phoenixbloomfield94723 жыл бұрын
Yeah, a lot of areas have parking for the chairs and leave the lift running without chairs through the storm which prevents ice buildup and freezing of the sheaves and terminal equipment.

IDK - clearing that ice off the mast was so satisfying - even just watching it!

Why r there no gondolas at such a gnarly mountain?!?
@ben33592 жыл бұрын
Gondolas are way more expensive and there isnt the demand for such high capacity lifts in the far reaches of the mountain

I feel like they could cover the chairs and see things with the amount of money not wasted but wasted In Labor cleaning them off.

Piss poor engineering, you would think if they designed something to be run in the winter they would design it to be impervious to the effects of inclement weather regardless of the severity; aka heated cable and towers!
@juliezaremskiy36355 жыл бұрын
Do you have any idea how expensive and impractical that would be? Even with a heated cable it won't work because it will still find a way to freeze over between spans
@littlekenny84115 жыл бұрын
They did design it to be impervious. It's a detatch able quad chairlift. The chairs should be racked off every night/wind hold/blizzard - they just didn't do that. This video shows the consequences.
