The Soho Basin Chairlift build update for Feb 2025
The Black Hawk machine has delivered the towers for the Soho 60 lift. The top and bottom stations are nearly complete, and a rope splice to integrate the system is scheduled within the next few weeks. The installation features a Doppelmayr six-seat Express lift, comparable to the McDougall model but without gondolas, and there is talk of operating it slightly faster.
Concurrently, terrain preparation for snowmaking is underway, and the trail map is being updated to include groomed runs, off-piste routes, and new trail names. Access to Soho Basin is available via a link track from the captain’s Express chair or an alternative track from McDougall’s chair. Further progress updates are expected in the coming weeks.
