JHMR To Replace Sublette Lift With New High Speed Quad

Experience the thrill of faster access to Jackson Hole Mountain Resort's legendary terrain with the upcoming replacement of the iconic Sublette lift. Set to debut in the 2024–25 winter season, the new detachable quad chairlift promises to halve riding time, delivering skiers and snowboarders to the south side of upper Rendezvous Mountain in record time. Say goodbye to eight-minute ascents and hello to four-minute rides climbing 1,600 vertical feet at 1,000 feet per minute. From classic cliffs like Goalpost to heart-stopping lines such as the Alta Chutes, riders can anticipate quicker access to some of North America's gnarliest inbounds skiing. Join us as we bid farewell to 37 years of Sublette's service and raise a toast to the dawn of an exhilarating new era at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort!

The new lift will cut ride time from eight minutes to four while climbing approximately 1,600 vertical feet at 1,000 feet per minute. JMHR will begin removal of the original Sublette lift and installation of its replacement this summer, marking the second major lift renovation in the past three years at JHMR after a new Thunder lift was completed in 2022.

Thanks, Sublette for many great years and many laps, and cheers to many more to come!
