Two chairlifts at Loveland Ski Area have been temporarily shut down because of mechanical problems and the resort says the rides likely won’t reopen before the weekend.

Lift 1 will be shuttered on Thursday and Friday for maintenance work and Lift 6 — which has not been operating since Sunday — will be repaired thereafter.

Loveland first spotted an issue on Jan. 15 with Lift 6.

“Because Lift 1 and Lift 6 are similar in construction, our team did a thorough inspection on Lift 1 after the problem was identified on Lift 6,” the ski area said in a statement. “Our inspection revealed the early stages of the similar issue.”
