A ski lift is a mechanism for transporting skiers up a hill. Ski lifts are typically a paid service at ski resorts. Types of lifts are: * Aerial lifts transport skiers while suspended off the ground.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.skilifts.org/old/glossary.htm )〕 Aerial lifts are often bicable ropeways, the "bi-" prefix meaning that the cables have two different functions (carrying and pulling).〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.lift-world.info/en/technology/faq/question1.htm )〕 * * Aerial tramways * * Chairlifts and detachable chairlifts * * Funifors * * Funitels * * Gondola lifts * * Hybrid lifts * Surface lifts, including T-bars, magic carpets, and rope tows. * Cable railways, including funiculars * Helicopters are used for heliskiing and snowcats for snowcat skiing. This is backcountry skiing or boarding accessed by a snowcat or helicopter instead of a lift, or by hiking. Cat skiing is less than half the cost of heliskiing, more expensive than a lift ticket but is easier than ski touring. Cat skiing is guided.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.powderhounds.com/Cat-Skiing.aspx )〕 Skiing at select, extreme resorts, like Silverton Mountain, is also guided, even when skiing just off of the lift. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「ski lift」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
