The design and mechanics of Bell Mountain lift requires that all chairlifts are on the line.

On a serious note who would return that and why would they leave it off at the top of the lift without a camera. and can they seriously not make a new one or have a replacement? if so they can just make a new fixed grip quad. They should have the money since everything is such a ripoff there

It’s a two hour drive to the top of that lift.
And it’s worth it ski there.
You can’t just replace a two chair lift with high speed lift in two months you buffoon.
Side note: it’s probably not expensive to replace or move all the chairs to take the space up. Just labor intensive which the company sees as expensive.
