Does this forum software allow for polls? Custom code?

Polls yes.

Can you start one?

Nobody ever asked

For that we’ll need nominations. Clearly, WF Summit quad, Plattekill double & Greek Chair 2 are nominated. How many can we include, Harv?

For the ride itself, for me, nothing beats the Little Whiteface chair. From the mid-station to the top, the view, and the peace and quiet are second to none.

If I can nominate a retired chair I will say the original Adirondack express, any chair at Plattekill and the Tannenbaum chair at Holiday Valley.

New top 3:
Platty Double
Summit Quad at Whiteface
Lift C at Song
Lift 2 at Greek

The overhaul last summer significantly increased the operating speed of Whiteface's gondola, making it the fastest lift in New York and significantly upping its position on my list of favorite lifts. The speed during this recording is 5.4 m/sec or 1063 fpm, which isn't even the fastest they've run it this season. That would be 5.8 m/sec or 1140 fpm. The top speed is 1212 fpm.

And I thought Harvey was detailed.
