#9.4 The end of a legend / Telemark movie

Our venerable and emblematic Foilleuse chairlift is no more. It was on Sunday April 2nd that the last rotation of our mythical lift took place.
Impatient of the new installation but nostalgic of the moments spent as a child and then as an adult on the first declutching chairlift of Switzerland put into service in 1983, we participated in the last turns of the beast. The party was great with concerts and raclettes served by our Champion Didier Défago. Some tracks between friends and the sharing of our memories. A lot happened on this seat.
Yes, the next day, the building work began and the 40 years of life of the lift came to an end.
See you next season in our brand new 10-seater cabin.

Really like the view of these old ski lifts.. Makes me think of the old days, when skiing days were extra special. The long queues, the cold seats 🙂. Nice film, again!

This is fantastic. I’m both an old telemark skier dad and a first year lift operator. Gruezi Mittenand from Tahoe. Sorry, I don’t speak French, but I loved the vibe of this. Thanks so much
