Alright, pulled this off of a MacGyver episode. From Season 2, back in the mid to late 80s. Back then the show was still filmed in California and not up in BC yet so chances are it was at one of the Cali resorts. It was lift 6.. somewhere..

Snow Summit CA

Alright, we may be onto something here. According to the lift survey, Chairlift 6 was installed at Snow Summit, CA in 1973 as a Lift Engineering double But.. That tower.. does it look like a LE tower? Or more like a Hall? I can't quite tell on the carrier.

I would definitely agree with Snow Summit. Chair 6 is indeed a Hall.

Correct. I was confusing Snow Valley with Snow Summit. Both resorts in cali had lifts installed in 73. Good job. Ironic that Snow Valley also had a lift 6 installed that same year.
