The challenges facing local news organizations are very real. That's why reader support matters more than ever. If you believe independent journalism matters, make a contribution today and help us reach our summer fundraising goal of $25,000 by August 9.
A-Basin plans to replace its base-to-mid-mountain lift with a detachable quad this summer after the mountain’s projected June 6 closing. The idea to replace the Exhibition fixed grip triple chair has been five years in the making, and one of the last things left to do is give it a name. The people at A-Basin are hoping the mountain’s skiers and riders can help with that. Arapahoe Basin officials are taking suggestions for the name of the new lift and giving a $300 Arapahoe Sports gift certificate to the person who comes up with the winning selection. Send your suggestions to alanh@a-basin.net.
The new lift will have a 2000 people-per-hour capacity and a three-minute ride time–about half the time it takes to get to mid-mountain on the Exhibition lift.
