Silverton Mountain in Colorado, famous for its deep powder, cat skiing, cheap heliskiing and hike-to freeriding terrain, has announced plans to install a second chairlift.
When Silverton opened in 2002 it had permission to create up to three lifts on the land, as well as limited base facilities, but for the past 21 years has operated with one fixed-grip double chairlift, bought second-hand from Mammoth Mountain.
Little detail on the new lift has been published yet, however Aaron Brill, Silverton Mountain's founder commented:
"We are really excited for the future of Silverton Mountain and our second chairlift that will access phenomenal terrain!."
