Burke
Last weekend our class went over to Burke Mountain to install the seat pads on the Willoughby chair. This job consisted of a lot of repetition, but our class made it a fun game by racing against the load and unload side of the terminal. This also was nice because our work got done faster. This was also the first time I operated a lift. It was pretty cool being able to watch the lift stop and go and know I was the one in control. At the end of the day I was once again satisfied for being a mtn. Rec major because of the intense amount of in field experience that we do on a weekly basis.
