Not New England and 51 years ago, but I'd nominate the Little Whiteface chairlift for that title.  The summit lift might've been at least as terrible, but it wasn't running when we visited during our honeymoon in June 1971.  The chairs on the L.W. lift had no footrest and the lap bars were ridiculously small - 10" or less.  The ride finished with a single catenary of about 2000' - per Google Earth - that seemed to rise straight up (probably closer to 60°) at the end, with a counterweight chunk of concrete nearly as big as our house.  That span was way above ground, 50' and higher, with a not-trail below - trees just cut and jackstrawed, nice place to land if one fell off the chair.  Can't imagine a rescue from there if the lift broke down.

right on with that one. Could look right down to Route 86, or jump

Any snow left in Tuckerman's? or the Greens?  Need to make  A July turn or 2.

Thinking this weekend is the last.

A buddy said it was snow, graupel, ice pellets at top of Superstar, but those photos definitely look like straight snow.

Is this Alan B?  Several former SkiVT-Listserve folks on this forum now.

Not sleet, snow and grapul. It is Alan B.  Better picture

more like grapul

Anyone here have native mt laurel?  Mine are experiencing leaf loss for several years.  These are very old specimens that used to bloom nicely.

Yes that is finger lake effect snow. Pretty classic. Need about 330-340 flow which is what they have. It's usually best if you have he Georgian bay connection going over the top of a weak ridge but they don't really have that this morning so the snow showers prob aren't too heavy. 

Can really see it on the cam
