Hard core skiers rejoice! Solitude, in Utah, has replaced their old Powderhorn double lift with a new $1.5 million fixed grip quad lift, which is also named "Powderhorn". This new lift will allow skiers to access the upper mountain as it has moved the beginning of the lift to mid-mountain. This lift will mainly access the more expert terrain and will separate more experienced skiers from people who are just learning to ski.
Solitude was recently infused with $7 million of capital investments, including new lifts last season getting more skiers up the mountain, reducing lift lines and allowing skiers to navigate the area more smoothly.
