  • Chronology of Selected Ski Lifts Notes for 2001 Exhibit, New England Ski Museum Jeff Leich
    Chronology of Selected Ski Lifts Notes for 2001 Exhibit, New England Ski Museum Jeff Leich The following notes on ski lifts are intended to aid in the development of a Ski Museum exhibit. In many cases it is unclear from the sources referenced below exactly when a particular lift was installed or first operated. It is also probable that sources with data on certain early ski lifts was not located. It is therefore not possible to compare opening dates to determine which lift was "the first" of its kind to operate; rather, this chronology is intended to indicate the general sequence of the development of early ski lifts of the stated types. 1870 Eureka Mine ore tramway used to transport miners for skiing (Allen, 109, 203 note 22--Vallejo CA Sunday Times Herald, 12-13-1870). "For example, the ore bucket of the Plumas Eureka Mine at Johnsville (CA) was converted on Sundays into the world's first ski tow. It was operated by steam". (Gould, p 136 (ref to Vallejo CA Sunday Times Herald, 12-13-1870). 1896 Riblet Tramways Company of Spokane, WA begins designing mining tramways (Gilbert, p. 2). 1907 Sightseeing four-passenger gondola built in Silver Plume, CO; torn down for scrap metal about 1914 (Gilbert, p. 2). 1907 "Sled lifts had been employed on the slopes of Bodele in the Voralberg region of Austria as early as 1907" (Gilbert, p. 4). 1908 Haulback tows used in Europe as early as 1908 (Allen, 109, note 20 on pg 203, from patent application, March 16, 1908). 1910 "A tow to haul toboggans was ready for the Truckee CA carnival in 1910 and then was used later by skiers following the formation of the Truckee Ski Club in 1913".

  • Loading Conveyors for Chairlifts
    Loading Conveyors for Chairlifts Maynard Russell MCR Services, LLC Page – 5.1 Loading Conveyors for Chairlifts Maynard Russell 1 Chairlift loading conveyors are becoming commonplace around the world. This paper historically reviews the first conveyors marketed and discusses the current products available for both fixed grip and detachable lifts. The North American market is just beginning to utilize this technology and this paper explains various options available today. With the price of new lifts relatively high perhaps a loading conveyor is a solution for increasing your lifts’ capacity. This paper dispels some of the myths and gives actual statistics for improved performance of your lifts. All of the various components from foundations to the control gates are discussed. There is also discussion of unloading carpets and their current applications. ANSI B77.1 is currently considering including both loading and unloading carpets in a separate section of the Standard. 1 Job Title: Company Name: MCR Services, LLC Address: P.O.

The first chairlifts were easily loaded single chairs and usually required a wool blanket to keep the occupant warm. The lifts were generally long and rather slow by today’s standard. Loading was from the side at some angle up to 90°. Along came the double chair but no real changes in loading were required.
