Does eight people on a chairlift with all their gear — skis, poles, snowboards — sound crowded? Don’t worry, it’ll be bubble-wrapped comfort.
Big Sky Resort is about to bring North America its first eight-person chairlift. Talk about chewing up the lift line!
Big Sky Ramcharger 8
The Ramcharger 8 lift will whisk passengers uphill in comfort. It has “ergonomically designed, extra-wide, heated seats” and “Big Sky blue” bubbles, Big Sky said in a press release. It will serve skiers on Andesite Mountain.
Big Sky assured the public that the new lift, a Doppelmayr eight-person, high-speed chairlift, will be more resistant to wind than the average chairlift. And it has plenty of room and a bubble windscreen to keep passengers warm.
