Okemo - Black Ridge Triple

The Black Ridge Triple is a fixed-grip triple chairlift located at Okemo Mountain Resort. The chairlift runs from Lower Mountain Road, a beginner trail located near the top of the mountain's main beginner area, to just less than halfway up the Main Face of the mountain. The chairlift mainly serves some short black trails and some of the mountain's terrain parks, including the halfpipe, but also serves a few intermediate trails as well. The lift was installed by Poma in 1984, replacing an old Poma platter lift.

Okemo Mountain Resort is a ski area located in Ludlow, Vermont. The ski area is located in the Southern-Central portion of the state, south of Killington and north of Stratton/Bromley/Magic. Okemo first opened for lift-serviced skiing in 1956. Starting in 1982, the ski area was owned by Triple Peaks, a company run by the Mueller Family, which also owned Mount Sunapee in New Hampshire and Crested Butte in Colorado. During the summer of 2018, the Muellers sold Okemo, along with their other properties, to Vail Resorts. As a result, Okemo is currently a destination on the Epic Pass. Okemo is one of the more popular ski areas in Vermont, as it is located in the southern portion of the state, making it closer to population centers. Okemo is known for its family-oriented culture. The mountain places a large emphasis on its wide variety of learning opportunities. The mountain has plenty of terrain for all skill levels, especially intermediate skiers and riders. The ski area is comprised of four main areas: the Main Face; the South Face, which has more advanced trails compared to the other areas and is a great way to avoid crowds; the Solitude area, which is home to a lot of fun cruisers, and a wide variety of condos; and Jackson Gore, the newest area of Okemo and is also home to the ski area's large hotel and a mountain coaster.
