Replying to Alta Tram

Forest Service has approved Alta's plans to put in a tram to the top of Mount Baldy. It will go to the very top.

While the idea of a tram wouldn't be bad in theory, as it will open up more lift access terrain, and prevent military mortars from being shot over civilian property (the only place in the U.S. this happens).

I still feel like their going about this all wrong. For example it will go the top which it will make a huge eyesore. I feel like there's a way to make it go partly up and end around tree line, to make it blend in. Also some of the famous hike to terrain on Baldy will be the same. In addition, as part of this plan they are trying to replace the iconic Wildcat double with a detachable quad. I personally liked the long ride times at the end of the day as it was kind of a break, but clearly Alta sees differently. I don't know what changed at Alta's management, but this is just sad.

I don't know maybe I'm just ranting about a good change, but this feels like tearing about part of the history/legacy of Alta
