There have been many changes at Hidden Valley Highlands Ski Area over the years. Before the current quad chairlifts, skiers were pulled up with the T-bar. Do you remember the gentleman lift attendant Floyd? Were you heavy enough to hold the T-bar down on your own? Share your Valley stories, if they are shareable. 🙂

Hidden Valley Way Back Wednesday
I had the pleasure of working with Floyd Bartlett for most of my years at Hidden Valley. Floyd worked at Hidden Valley from day one.
Floyd was a hard working man. always had a sense of humor and a team player. It was his T-Bar.
He had little education but a brilliant man in his own right. He was a “get’er done guy, always remembered.

This photograph can be found in the Community Digital Archives for the Huntsville Forester in the early 1980’s. According to that source, the mystery woman in the front row is Dr. Vivian Abbott.
