I'm very recently very interested in the old abandoned ski areas. I was wondering if anyone knew of an old area where lifts are still up? or even if the chairs are set on the ground that would be ideal. I'm looking for old chairs to just really get a good sense of the old technology that was used on these old mountain/areas. I've had some great success with finding rope tows and Poma lifts, however chairlifts are hard to find really with chairs still attached! Any information would be great. Just a hint. I am NOT looking to take these. I have found old Poma Bars, T-Bars, and old rope tow handles and always abide by the rules of the area. I have taken ONE T-bar, and asked the mountains owner for permission to take it. I don't know how I could fit a chair in my little Ford Taurus either! Thanks in advance for anyone who will be giving information on an OLD mountain with some chairs attached or lying around!
Freeze. Actually, I wouldn't be there in the first place because I do not ski and I hate, hate, hate cold and snow!

I'm okorder . The only place I know of is actually in PA at Tanglwood. The place hasn't opened in two years and the new owner hasn't totally decided what he wants to do with the chairs. They are still up. I believe it one lift is a early 1960's Hall Double. Not sure about the others.
