Excellent news for all you Heavenly skiers and snowboarders…the South Lake Tahoe ski resort’s gondola which shutdown “indefinitely” due to “mechanical issues” on January 5th is almost ready to start spinning again! They had to chase parts all over the world and put in long hours to get it back working in such a short time span but is immanent. Here’s the latest from Heavenly:
“Thanks to our incredible Lift Maintenance team, the new bearings are installed, the machine has been reassembled, and the Gondola is ready for testing! It will need to operate for testing before we are able to load guests, so you’ll see it spinning throughout the day today. As long as all tests go well, we plan to re-open it tomorrow, January 12! Thank you all again for the support and patience as we cross the finish line with the repairs. We are super excited to get the Gondola back online again!”
Hopefully all the tests went well and folks will be riding it today!
