Lecht Ski Lift - 1979
In February 1979, the Lecht Ski Company (incl Pieter Du Pon) contacted BP/Bristow to assist them position the first of their ski lifts at the Lecht. The conditions were such that it was not possible to erect the tow pylons from the ground so BP authorised the use of "Elsie" to undersling the pylons in place. As always, it took longer to do and I lowered the last pylon in the the dark. David Gold, a freelance photographer took a picture of the final lift and that picture won a prestigious photographic competition (See final picture)
