3 man chairlift busted

The main 3 man chairlift in pamp was shut down late this afternoon and we were told its broken , any 1 got any updates, as going up on those single seat yellow chairs we used to get yo the mid station felt nothing more than glorified plastic garden patio chairs,

Pete,

Thanks for the link to the SKI LIFT RESCUE.

I feel really assured now.

Especially looking forward to being in the cable car when it breaks down.
