Ski lift (Chairlift) mechanism in the resort of Tsakhkadzor, Armenia


A ski lift is a mechanism for transporting skiers up a hill. Ski lifts are typically a paid service at ski resorts. The first ski lift was built in 1908 by German Robert Winnerbalder in Schollach/Eisenbach, Hochschwarzwald.[1]



Types




  • Aerial lifts transport skiers while suspended off the ground.[2] Aerial lifts are often bicable ropeways, the "bi-" prefix meaning that the cables have two different functions (carrying and pulling).[3]

    • Aerial tramways


    • Chairlifts and detachable chairlifts

    • Funifors

    • Funitels

    • Gondola lifts

    • Hybrid lifts




  • Surface lifts, including T-bars, magic carpets, and rope tows.


  • Cable railways, including funiculars

  • Helicopters are used for heliskiing and snowcats for snowcat skiing. This is backcountry skiing or boarding accessed by a snowcat or helicopter instead of a lift, or by hiking. Cat skiing is less than half the cost of heliskiing, more expensive than a lift ticket but is easier than ski touring. Cat skiing is guided.[4] Skiing at select, extreme resorts, like Silverton Mountain, is also guided, even when skiing just off the lift.[5]
