Favorite Lift?

For me probably Whistler Peak Chair. Got pow laps for days. (Or 30 minutes on a busy day.)

What's your's?
 
Single person chairlift at mad river glen. 1 of 2 single chairs left in the country and servicing argueably the best east coast slackcountry terrain
 
I'm not too sure, I haven't skied a ton of places. The MRG single definitely looks like it would be a favoriteif I could get up there sometime.

At a place I've skied I'd have to go with the barker quad at Sunday River. Just so much shit to go explore off it, at the end of the day I just like to go off and traverse all these old narrow logging chutes that are everywhere (Think goat path but steeper).
 
The Face Quad at Whiteface. You can get so many park laps on that lift because the three main parks (Broadway, Danny's Bridge, and Brookside) are all off of that one lift.
 
Or the lone tree? i think it's called lift at moonlight. That was probably one of the best days of skiing i had lapping that lift.
 
The Red Chair at Magic. Never has it gone on wind hold, it's nestled below the treetops so your lighter will always light and I sponsored chair #69 when they were reprinted and got new pads. My world is a-ok when I'm riding Ol Red. It just feels so right.
 
had some great times on the old three kings lift at PC. new one is nice but i still think the conveyor belt is excessive for a park lift. there's one lift at bird that takes you up a real steep part, can't remember it's name though.
 
when I saw this title the first thing I thought of was the peak chair. Not sure if it's my favourite, but it's certainly up there. It's a cool lift when you go over that cliff and of course more importantly it gets you to some awesome skiing!
 
But seriously:

Palmer at Hood (or the one above it? Lol dk)

The peak chair at Whitefish that goes all the way to the top. Shit's goddamn beautiful up there. You can look out over the valley, too.

I haven't really been on any other lifts out west so i'm limited. The tram at snowbird is pretty piquant too.

 
Summit chair at whitewater. Anyone that has ridden it on a powder knows. Seeing people send it down blast is so much fun, and the terrain is much better than glory imo.
 
T-bar at breck. Doesnt access the worlds best skiing but good times are always had.

Also Harmony at whistler deserves a spot in here.
