Ski lift evacuation
42

If ski lift equipment fails,
the person in charge must
evacuate passengers according
to the evacuation plan.
This evacuation must be done
within a predefined time frame,
and is generally conducted by
the operations staff.

Technical specifics:
• accessing the passengers
is done by moving along the
cable, from the towers
• these operations are managed
simultaneously by multiple
autonomous teams, generally
composed of:
- a person suspended on
the cable who evacuates
passengers and whose
movements are protected by
a team member on the tower
- a person on the ground who
receives passengers and
guides the movement of the
team member on the cable
• the success of these
operations hinges largely on the
instruction, training and practice
of the operations staff (at least
once a year)
