billytkid asked:

Ive been on holiday recently snowboarding, and while on the chair lifts and gondolas weve been thinking about how are these massive structures built in such remote and inaccesible locations? Another part to this is how are the cables (which must way tons) run over the length of the lift, then bonded together and the tension applied?!

Can you help, or point me to a website?
