Brundage Mountain Chairlift Construction Report


Brundage Mountain Resort's construction of two new chairlifts is well underway and scheduled for completion in time for the 2007/2008 ski season. A fixed grip triple chair named the "Bear Chair" will replace an existing Platter Tow and provide easy access to underutilized terrain.
The new "Lakeview" Chair will open up nearly 160 acres of new terrain on the south side of Brundage and is visible from the city of McCall. This is also a fixed grip triple chair with the bottom terminal at 6,600 feet and the top terminal at 7,400 feet.
Together, the two new lifts will increase the resort's uphill capacity from 3,100 people per hour to 6,700 people per hour. For more information and a trail map of the new lifts check out Brundage's website at www.brundage.com
