SilverStar Gondola Construction

It’s out with the old — and in with the new at Silver Star.

The resort has started adding a new Doppelmayr gondola, which will replace the Summit chair.

Wesla Wong, communications liaison for the resort, says the three metres of snow on the ground may impact the July completion target.

“Yes we are still on track because we expected the snow to stick around right now. However if the snow does stick around longer than expected, that could to the key to our opening date,” Wong tells Beach Radio News.
