Sikorsky Skycrane at Squaw Valley 10.15.12
A Sikorsky Skycrane helicopter visited Squaw Valley yesterday to haul towers from the Squaw parking lot to the location of the new Big Blue Express lift. The impressive aerial workhorse had the entire project done by lunch. Less than a minute in and out except for some of the larger towers. The Big Blue Express will improve traffic flow and mid mountain access at Squaw and starts where the old High Camp loaded and unloads near the top of East Broadway (neither lift exists anymore).
