LIFT EVAC. Patrollers practice a lift evacuation at Beaver Creek Resort shortly after the ski area was established in 1980. The technique is used to lower guests in the event of a lift malfunction. The ability to climb lift towers and execute a high-angle rope rescue is an important part of a patroller’s responsibility. The state of Colorado also enforces evacuation standards across all ski areas. (Courtesy of Vail Resorts photograph archive.)
