Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Excellent. That thing broke my heart on Easter sunday, bags of fresh powder and a 45 minute queue while it only took two people at a time for some reason. I was livid and was thinking of posting a rant on one of the threads here about the morality of transferring lift passes in an area where they don't reinvest (I actually typed out half the rant in the queue before I decided that I'd wait until the end of the day aand after enjoying the aforementioned powder for a few hours, all was forgiven).
That said there are a lot of lifts in chamonix that could do with an upgrade.

8611, it's actually a four man but in some weather conditions it drips oil on the middle two!! They are also putting a chair down the back of Les Houches. The real cranky lift left is the Flegere cable car.

jbob, there's a major problem with replacing the Flegere cable due high local gusting wind. Not an easy thing to solve...

Blimey - CMB actually investing in new infrastructure without being prompted by someone dying on the old stuff - whatever next - better access to the Vallorcine side of Le Tour for slowboarders? (not a personal problem but a PITA when you're with some who don't like riding violent old drags)

I was amazed at how bad the lifts in Le Tour were. You get so little back in terms of time on the piste too. But I thought the Flegere one was grand? Albeit that was yesterday when there were about three cable car loads on the entire mountain. I do have unhappy memories of half hour queues there before.
If I was in charge I'd upgrade more or less every lift in the valley apart from Herse and Cornu I think. Vote me in there lads .
