The Gondola Cabin Parking Facility at Keystone

When the Outpost gondola was built in 1991, Keystone decided to also build an underground cabin parking facility where the gondola cabins from both the Outpost and River Run gondolas could be parked and worked on in the same facility. Here is a tour of the underground cabin parking facility at Keystone Resort, Colorado. However, because both gondolas were built by different lift manufacturers, there had to be two seperate chair rails because both gondolas had different principle roller designs.

An overview of the chair rail and cabin parking area for the River Run Gondola.

Since the River Run gondola has its own chair rail to the cabin bays, so does the Outpost gondola. However, the Outpost gondola cabins come into the cabin bays from the other side and that's where the chair rail in this picture takes you.

In this picture, you are looking down the hallway that you see in the picture above with the cabin bays on the left.

Here are some of the River Run's gondola cabins sitting quietly in the dark.

Here is a picture of the wash bay, where the gondola cabins are washed and cleaned out.

Here is a picture of two gondola cabins that have recently been washed and cleaned out. (Noticed the two different gondola interiors. That's because more gondolas were added the River Run gondola at a later date.)

Here is a picture looking down the ramp which the River Run's gondola cabins travel into the cabin parking facility.
