49 Degrees North Construction Update: The Towers Are Up!
Ian Wood
Indy Pass partner 49 Degrees North Mountain Resort in Chewelah, Washington is currently replacing its Chair 1- Bonanza double chairlift to the summit with a new Dopplemeyer high-speed quad. The lift will be the longest in the state of Washington and get skiers and riders up in about six and a half minutes. The summer construction of the lift has moved along quickly on the lift, as last week saw the towers of the lift put into place. Next up is the completion of the base and summit terminals, attaching the haul rope and splicing it, and then putting the chairs on.
Here are some of the best images and videos from their social media team of the construction process over the past couple of months.
