Jasper, Alberta
August 28, 2009 – Jasper’s Marmot Basin ski resort is completing the next phase of one of Canada’s most significant ski lift development projects for the winter of 2009/2010 – the installation of 26 towers which will support The Canadian Rockies Express, the longest new high-speed quad chairlift in the Alberta Canadian Rocky Mountains.
Early this morning, crews were busy hooking up the first of the towers to a dual rotor KMAX helicopter, and then watched as the helicopter slowly lifted the 35 foot tall tower off the ground and began its flight up the mountainside. By the end of today, all 26 towers (the two heaviest weighing in at 5,800 lbs. each) will be in place.
