Lifts and Trails

Blacktail mountain has four ski lifts, one triple chair, two double chairs, and one handle tow. The triple chair, called Olympic, runs up the centre of the ski area, with the two double chairs, Thunderhead and Crystal, to the west and east of Olympic, respectively. The rope tow runs on a small training hill for beginner skiers.[1] The ski area has 26 runs, 15% beginner, 65% intermediate, 20% expert, and also includes a terrain park.[2] Two of the expert trails run through an open field of trees that can be skied through.[1]

gollark: I think it actually works somehow.
gollark: The best test of a CC emulator is whether it can run PotatOS. It actually caused several segfaults and other bugs in CraftOS-PC somehow.
gollark: The only difference is that CC is Lua 5.1ish plus extra features while OC is 5.2/5.3.
gollark: > I understand CC lua quite a bit, and understand OC lua 0%It's *basically* the same language with different libraries to some extent.
gollark: Probably? I remember using one. It's probably not a complete emulation though.
