Stowe Trip

When we went to Stowe for class we ended up checking out their new Dopplemayr lift that is almost complete. Stow is putting a new high speed quad that goes the full length of the mountain. When we went to Stowe the lift towers were complete and placed on the hill already, the top terminal was half way through being complete and the bottom terminal was just about done. Stow is also putting a building in next to the lift to house the lift chairs on days that will be extremely cold and snowy and icy so they dont have to take off the snow and ice from them. After checking out the new lift we went back to the base and helped the mountain ops at Stowe dismantle the old lift towers that they had taken down to put the new lift up. In the end it was a pretty sweet trip to Stowe.
