ski tow

A mountain rescue team used a ski tow to bunny-hop up a hill to carry out the "unique" rescue of an injured woman.

The Brattleboro Reformer reports the ski tow that has operated periodically for the past 70 years still needs repairs and won’t be open for school vacation next week.

Yet he was never grand when off-duty, as when in 1950 on a six-week tour across America with his orchestra some of his musicians spotted him coming up the ski tow in Sun Valley.

Lowther Hill was a busy ski resort in the 1960s and 1970s when there was a permanent ski tow on the slope.

Falling and drifting snow has also almost reached the tops of some ski tow pylons at Glenshee Ski Resort.
