And why are you in the Whiteface forum? Getting bored with stratton? I can see how easy that could be. Not much vert and not really anything there to write home about. :twisted:

If I'm not mistaken, it's the Little Whiteface (G & H) lifts. They were installed before Freeway (Lift I) and Summit Triple (now Kids Campus Lift), both of which were originally put into service just before the '80 Olympics. I'm guessing they're close to thirty (30) years old by now.

Does anyone else have an opinion or know for sure?

P.S. Not sure about the Bear (B) Lift, but it could be older than all of them. :?

The triple at kids kampus used to be the summit triple which was new for 1980, i think. The oldest looking chairs are on the bunny slope.
I don't think drifter wants that beer :wink:
