They are planning to upgrade the first and second lifts in the next year or two.
There will also be a new drag lift going in to provide easier access for those staying over in the new developments at Bataillettaz.

@mooney058,
No , the lift system is owned by the Comunne so they have Very little money to play with , they built the Marquise lift a few years back , the first lift was replaced two years ago and they are still paying these off . There are plans for a new chair from the station to the bottom of the marquise but this could be years away !
This summer they have made improvements to snow making capacity on the Marquise and Aiguille areas further up the mountain bridging the gap found early season between man made and the high altitude snow ,between 1800 and 2100m

Thanks @Rob Mackley, sounds reasonable. The Marquise is perfect, altough 10y old already (would not say that, looks rather fresh).
I quite like the top slow lift (L'Aigulle) - good chance to look arround and enjoy being in a spectacular surroundings. It is the second (L'Arpettaz) slow lift, which is shorter than the one going to the top, that is a bit annoying. But hey - no rush and the two slow lifts suit quite well St Foy - so it is not max speed up and then blasting down. It is the only resort of all I know where the two fast and two slow lifts make a very good combination
