I can't see people on the slope, I can't hardly see ridges on the groomer there. Guessing this would be the YC ? Mindy, were you the only skier on the lift ? or on the slopes ? |

They call it a "Magic Carpet". Ingenious, quite honestly, and really beats the POMA, rope tow, and the T-Bar that I learned on.
Here's the one at Winter Park:
I still don't know where in CA that is?  |

| | Re: Guess the Ski Area The leather vest dudes - Yellowstone - the park area, not the Club.
The magic carpet - its PEDAL POWERED ! See the guy at the top right of the photo on the bike ? It's a stationary bike & he's pedalling the skier up the magic carpet. Guess that's why it's such a skinny carpet & not on much of an incline. It's placed at the bottom of a bunny hill.
Ski area is in Tahoe area. I did leave a clue in my next post after this question - In CA? Hmmm.....no clue. What's it start with?  The actual clue asked for. (but it is very subtle).
