1. A cool type of ski lift. Instead of the chair lift at every hill they had these at some of the runs. At the bottom of the hill you follow the next one through just like you do on the chair lift to catch the next one. You catch it behind you and skiers catch it and sit on one of the the sides of the "T" , while snowboarders sit with one of the "T"sides inbetween their legs. Its on a big bunge cord and your own weight keeps you down at ground level and it just pulls you along on your skis or your board. When its time to get off you just let go and it springs itself back up top. It is really cool becuase this way you can get off the left at anytime of the hill. Most of the time right at the top/end of a lift its really congested and busy, so you can get off just before. Or if you like this one part of the hill you can get off right there. BUT the bad part about it is that if youre not paying attention one of the sides of the "T" can hook on your jacket and keep pulling you. and if youre not prepared for it like i was you can start to freak out and panic for a few seconds. I threw my ski poles and fought for my life it seemed like! haha. it really wouldnt have dont anything except pull me highter up the hill. but i paniced! david was laughing his pants off at me! im sure i would have done the same if i were watching myself!
