Anyone out there get stuck on the lift this past weekend. I was told that the new high speed quad broke down with a full load.
Everyone had to be brought down off the chairs with ropes. It broke down at 12:00, they got the last people off at 3:30.
That lift has been having problems all year.
I have not skied one day that it wasn't down at least some of the day.
Glad no one was hurt. Hope they get the bugs worked out.

I was there on Tuesday Feb 17th. This is Massachusetts School vacation week and it was a ghost town at Gunstock. No lines what so ever. Make a ton of runs. They blame it on the bad press they received about the lift being down on Sunday. The lift operated just fine on Tuesday. They only complaint I have is someone stole of backpack full of stuff. That was a bummer. Never had that happen before.

Bummer about the back pack.
I worked there and also know someone who works that lift and can honestly tell you that lift has been a nightmare for them. When it is running it's great but it has been so unpredictable.
From observations I noticed that the more crowded the lift is the more problems they had. Maybe that it why it ran so good when you were there.
As I said before I hope they fix it cause it's just as easy from here to drive an hour to Sunapee or Cannon.

I've been enjoying the new lift. It's very fast and I've not had any problems. Of course I've been out of town all week so I missed the excitement. Hopefully they will get the bugs out of it soon. I know they are having a bad year (I think most ski areas are) but I understand they are having good crowds during vacation week.

Don't know how the above got into this thread.....it was a reply to the "Jerk is getting married" thread. I'm guessing that "Gunstock" was entered at the same moment that I entered my reply and they got mingled.......something like "The Fly".....kinda spooky

Interesting, I was getting 'data base errors' last week in viewing posts, wonder if this is tied to the slowwwness??

Maybe the data base 'engine' needs an O.F.L ? :)
