This week our Lift Operators and new Patrollers have been hard at work training for the upcoming season.  One critical piece of training that we complete every year is manual lift evacuation training.  This evacuation method would only be used if we were unable to get guests off a lift using either the main electric motor or backup diesel evacuation motor.  In this extremely rare situation, our Patrol team would set up a rope system where we can safely lower guests from a chair to the ground.  It is a slow process because we take our time to ensure everyone’s safety.  Rest assured, if you ever find yourself in this situation, you will be glad for all the training and discussion that goes on to prepare for the unknown.
