Re: POWDR to manage Zion Natl Park concessions

Superstar groom

Re: Superstar chair

The SS chair was very much completely replaced in 1997 and converted froma a Yan to a Poma design. The towers might be from 1987 but most of the rest was replced by Poma and upgraded thoughout the intervening years. That is how it earned the "frankenlift" designation. SUPERSTAR (YAN/POMA) ...

Re: Preston's pitch?

Skiers left of lower Superstar. I believe it is the old Superstar line before the chair was installed and the trail widened and reconfigured.

Re: Superstar chair

The rumor from a highly confidential inside "top source" is the SS chair replacement is leaning 6 pack. The company and configuration is not yet decided.

Re: Superstar 2024

Re: Only Superstar Quad After this Weekend!

That is all tongue in cheek from me. OF COURSE Mike was always going to do the right thing based on the conditions. He always has since he got control of K. The right guy for the job doing the right thing for skiers and boarders.

Re: Only Superstar Quad After this Weekend!

Mike Solimano is the Killington Commander who makes things happen! He has vast powers but mostly only over operations at K the rest of it I can't say for sure.
