Meadows Chairlift Replacement
Imagine...
- No more dragging your kids up to the chair...
- No more stepping on your wife's skis...
- No more skis stepping on your board...
- No more bruised calves!
This 08/09 season Boyne Mountain is replacing the Meadows Chairlift with a higher speed quad, fixed grip, conveyor load lift. This lift not only travels faster than the original, it’s easier to load thanks to a conveyor belt system giving riders a seamless transition from snow to seat. This is what happens when Doppelmayr and the ChairkiD Carpet have a "love child" and what a nice looking baby she’ll be. The new lift extends further down the Meadows slope. It will provide easier access from the parking lots and will make movement around Boyne Mountain easier than ever!
