The Schattberg Sprinter replaces the old Westgipfel III lift and the Schönleiten 6er replaces two old lifts, the Kar and Weißbach lifts. These two new lifts follow the installation of two other six seater chairs and a heated gondola last winter and take the area?s hourly uplift capacity past 90,000. There's currently a foot of snow on lower slopes and 30 inches on the upper runs, with 53 or the 55 lifts operating along with carving funpark, halfpipes, night skiing, mogul runs and snow parks.
