The Summit Express

Pleasant Mountain is excited to announce the installation of our first high-speed, detachable chairlift for the 2024/25 winter season

We're taking our guest experience to new heights with a faster, more efficient detachable quad from Dopplemayr. The Summit Express will cut the ride time in half, shuttling skiers and riders to the top of the mountain in just 4.5 minutes.

Construction will begin soon after the season wraps up with the removal of the Summit Triple chairlift and site preparation, followed by tower and terminal installation.

We can't wait to introduce Pleasant Mountain guests to the new lift experience!
