Poster: A snowHead
|
I heard that Glencoe were planning on installing a new chairlift to replace the button lift at the top of the access chair.
Anyone know if this has actually happened?
Any other developments planned for Scotland?
A friend mentioned Glenshee were to get a new lift too...

There is a new chairlift in the carpark at the Glenshee but i'm pretty sure it wont be going up before the winter starts.
I believe there is talks for another chair at Glenshee as well.
Coe have a new chair, im hoping that will be up by the winter.

Thanks, sounds encouraging - have been trying to find out more about the Glencoe chair but doesn't seem to be any info on their website or fb.

Don't know anything about Glenshee but the Glencoe chair will be going in for next winter. Think there is stall a couple of planning hurdles to iron out.
The chair is already on site and ready to go next summer.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

As I understand it, Glencoe's new triple chairlift will be in addition to - & will not replace - the Plateau draglift. Its top station will be higher up the mountain (towards the bottom of the Spring Run) than the top of the Plateau Poma.
The chair will transform access to the upper mountain and - after last season's new draglift - further improve the green-run skier's experience on the Plateau runs.
Latest info can be found on the following forum. Winterhighland is a fantastic resource for Scotland ski info. Igloo4you who posts on there is the Glencoe ski area owner:

I'm looking forward to taking the 3-seater to the top of Cairnwell at Glenshee this winter with the kids. I heard a pretty reliable rumour that the next plan is a chair to replace the Meall Odhar draglift over towards Glas Maol which would relieve a bottleneck.
