One keen thing we used to do from the T-Bird Lodge is ski over to Ski Acres via the Mounteers rope tow. I know it's normal to go over the top as it were, but back then you had to use their rope tow. Grabbing that rope tow from 3/4 from the top was death defing as the rope tow back then seemed to be going at 50mph and would (almost) pull your arms right out of the scokets. We would seal one ride on the single chair at Ski Acres and go back to the summit. We just did that only in the late 60's and early 70's. Back in the day staying at Conifer Lodge with Greg Kiola, ski boot inventer.
