  • Significance: Mad River Glen is the home of the Single Chair Ski Life, the longest and oldest operating single chair ski lift in its original location in North America - a historical treasure for the ski industry. The American Steel and Wire Company designed and installed this patented aerial ski tramway. This technology was fundamental to the success of the Vermont ski industry and transformed the rural landscape, making it an important part of the state's industrial and environmental history.
