it's going to be 4.4 km long, with the the maximum height being 415 m (almost 1400 feet) about the valley floor. only 4 towers, 51 million dollars to install. longest unsupported ski lift span in the world (over 3 km). i'm stoked, it will make it feasible to ride both mountains in a single day, rather that choosing a single one.
