Instructions to load on a chairlift 1. Pick a suitable mountain for your ski level, and a suitable lift on that mountain. Most lifts have signs indicating what levels (green/blue/black/red) of trails that lift services. 2. Put your skis on. Grab your poles, but don't put your hands into the straps. 3. Get in line for the lift; the higher up the mountain the lift goes, the faster the chair lift may move. 4. Glide your way to the lifting area and keep your poles close to you. 5. Stop on the marked line. 6. If you'll be sitting on the left, put both poles in your right hand, and look over your left shoulder. If you'll be sitting on the right, do the opposite. If you'll be sitting in the middle, do it either way. 7. Bend your knees slightly because the chair (lift) will hit them, but this is normal. 8. As the chair approaches, you may want to reach for it with your free hand. 9. Sit down when the lift touches the backs of your knees. 10. Pull the metal bar down over you as a seat belt and you are on your way to the trail. 11. Sit back in your chair and do not rock the chair.
