to the ground below, officials announced.

Emergency crews responded to Attitash Mountain Resort in Bartlett just after noon on Saturday after a chair detached from the Flying Bear lift, according to the New Hampshire State Fire Marshal’s Office.

Witnesses reported that the man was conscious and walking after the fall. He was then assisted by ski patrol and transported to an area hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Tramway inspectors said that a preliminary inspection showed a mechanical failure caused the chair to dislodge.

In an update on Monday, the New Hampshire State Fire Marshal’s Office said, “Representatives of the lift manufacturer have also been present on the scene and are assisting with and fully cooperating in the ongoing investigation”

Inspectors now plan to review records of past inspections of the lift, including the most recent State inspection conducted in November 2024.

New Hampshire law requires mechanical lifts to be registered and inspected yearly, with additional inspections randomly conducted during the year.

Officials said that additional updates will be provided as the investigation continues.
