A few quick thoughts on the new Gondola at River Run in Keystone. 1) Moving it closer (away from the slope) is nice. 2) The mid-mountain station is great because beginners always struggle with that last chunk of the hill and can down-load. 3) No 'gear racks' attached to the cabins, maybe that's coming soon but its crowded ride (with 8 people). 4) Overall, the gondola is a great improvement to the resort.
