"It's only visible if you know it's there." Watch a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to run Jackson Hole Mountain Resort's iconic Aerial Tram. Head Tram Mechanic Mike Vase and his team of tram mechanics take you on a journey high above Big Red and into the "crow's nest", soaring countless vertical feet on a daily basis and further cementing their status as the unsung heroes of the Jackson Hole Tram.

I used to do that too, also as a tram mechanic. On the original tram and it's first replacement. Still have a few Frey AG Stans embossed Swiss army knives from then. Many years ago though, probably before these workers were even born. Nice video.

Also as for the accumulation of ice and snow on the instrumentation, I wonder have you considered engineering and routing some heating equipment to the area? Seems like it could work in at least some of those areas.

This place sucks unless the snow is good but it was hard pack blown out. Paid $230 for blown out groomers and hard pack garbage. Should have gone to Mammoth or Tahoe
