Sun Valley/ Lookout Express

Lookout Express is a Yan-Doppelmayr high-speed quad. Installed in 1993 by Yan, it started its life with the Yan Teardrop chairs and Yan terminals. in 1996, this lift, along with 7 of the other Yoppelmayr high-speed quads, received a retrofit from Doppelmayr. The retrofit gave the lift new terminals, EJ chairs, and Doppelmayr grips.

Lookout Express is a pretty standard Yoppelmayr high-speed quad. It uses Yan Y-shaped towers, Yan lift shacks, and the rest of the equipment is Doppelmayr ever since the retrofit. This lift is quite nice and a vital piece of Sun Valley's lift system, and I see it sticking around for at least 7-8 more years.
