BIG SKY, MT — The eagle(s) have landed.
Following a 37-day journey from Olten, Switzerland, both of the Lone Peak Tram cabins have arrived safely in Big Sky. The cabins were greeted in traditional Big Sky fashion with a local bull moose temporarily stopping traffic as they made their way to their final destination.
The 6,615-pound cabins arrived by boat in Port Hueneme, California, before being loaded on a truck for delivery to Big Sky.
The cabins will travel up to 300 feet off the ground when installed on the haul ropes, and each include 12 seats and a glass floor panel for viewing during the summer.
