Does any one know anything about the old Single at ski acres?

[Snoqualmie guy]

In case somone is not a Snoqualmie Ski acres, aka Summit Central skier or rider then there used to be a single chair next to the present triple 60 lift.

Was the lift moved or was it scraped? When was it gone?

Lift World Website has single chair lift lists...it shows only one in USA, it is Mad River Ski Resort, VT. There are some countries.

I believe it was an AWS lift, don't know how long it lasted. My dad may know more, I'll ask next time I talk to him.

BTW it was never called 'Snoqualmie Ski Acres'.

I know, I just called it that incase any got confused with some other area.

Near the triple 60 trail, on the opposite side of Triple 60 there still is a tower.

Triple 60 replaced the single chair in the early 1980s. I'll see if I have a picture. Looked like a Riblet. There is a damaged Riblet single chair still standing at Snowcrest in near Los Angeles. The drive was in the original base lodge that burned. The rest of the chair is still there.

Kratka Ridge is not a Riblet, that lift is homemade.

This weekend I might hike up and take some photos. I might also look for the t - bar (is it the j - bar?)
