LIFT Days

This year, Ski NH is expanding its lift mechanic training beyond its low-voltage electrical safety seminar to include mechanical and hydraulics instruction. Renamed Lift Industry-Focused Training (LIFT) Days, sessions will be held over time rather than in a two-day block, allowing for more entry-level and advanced hands-on training while supporting staff development across NH ski areas. Ski Lift Electrical Theory Day was held at Waterville Valley Resort. Other upcoming events include:

June 3, 2026 - LIFT Day at Bretton Woods 

This one-day seminar for lift mechanics, designed to build on existing experience, focuses on real-world applications to help mechanics diagnose issues and optimize lift operations. The program will provide hands-on training in key technical areas for lift maintenance and performance, including hydraulics, PLC systems, speed feedback, motor drive tuning, and electrical troubleshooting.

The day also includes a lunchtime roundtable for knowledge sharing and camaraderie, and concludes with a raffle and happy hour to continue conversations and strengthen connections.
