Title Gondola Malfunction Leaves 67 People Stranded Midair In Large-Scale Rescue Mission
Summary A mechanical issue caused a malfunction that required 67 people to be rescued from inside their gondolas. Dylan Longton captured the rescue mission on February 4th at Gore Mountain ski resort, North Creek, New York. Various people were stuck inside their gondolas midair after the mechanical issue struck the site and needed to be belayed down. The video shows multiple staff members watching as a ski member slowly lowers safely to the ground. The Olympic Regional Development Authority (ORDA) led the rescue mission, and luckily, no injuries were reported. In a statement, the ORDA said the issue was a non-emergency mechanical alignment problem and apologised for the disruption.
