Sun Peaks helicopters in towers for new chairlift

Sun Peaks Resort welcomed the towers for the new Orient chairlift this weekend.

Originally meant to be delivered by helicopter last week but postponed due to weather conditions, the towers have made it onto the premises of the resort.

This new four-passenger chairlift is located in the East Village area of the resort.

Set to open just in time for Christmas, this chairlift will improve access to the main village core and will give access to family-friendly blue runs.
