The newest lift upgrade at Mt. Spokane Ski & Snowboard Park announced in May will see the installation of the Half Hitch Handle Tow in the Half Hitch Terrain Park. The mountain reports the lift will be ready for action in the upcoming 24-25 winter season. With its 692-foot rope length and a top speed of almost 400 feet per minute, the lift promises to transform the terrain park experience for skiers and snowboarders alike. Capable of transporting up to 700 people per hour, this addition will streamline movements in the terrain park, reducing congestion on Parkway Express (Chair 3).
Mt. Spokane general manager Jim van Löben Sels says the move demonstrates the mountain’s commitment to providing an unparalleled terrain park experience that caters to all ability levels. “Our dedicated team works tirelessly to maintain and enhance the park’s features, with plans to broaden our range of events and programs. The new lift represents a milestone in our plans for terrain park expansion, making us the only local mountain to offer a lift specifically for terrain park users.”
