This project will replace the fifty-year old surface platter lift at Lift 2 with a moving conveyor lift. This will improve access for beginner skiers and reduce maintenance. The new lift will be in the same location and no more than 500' long.
Location
Within the Sipapu Ski Area located approx. 8 miles east of Penasco.
