Kokomo Express will serve 362 vertical feet of dedicated beginner terrain, “setting the bar for an exceptional beginner ski and ride experience,”
They could of installed a high speed fixed grip with a carpet loader at a lot less money since it is only 362 vertical feet!!! The money they saved could of been put toward a South Ridge lift at K. How much time do you think a high speed would save on such a short run?

You know why! Beginners can no longer handle loading fixed grips, and it seems much easier for them to load the detaches that are slowly moving thru the terminal.
