Take flight on Super Angel LX with your Season Pass!

The 2024/25 ski and snowboard season will be one for the books! New to Sunshine Village, Super Angel Luxury Express heated chairlift will fly skiers and riders up Lookout Mountain in style!

 

The new six-passenger, Super Angel Luxury Express has replaced the beloved Angel Quad Express chairlift. The original, two-seater Angel chairlift was built in the 1960’s, and in 1988, Banff Sunshine introduced its first high-speed quad to the Canadian Rockies, changing the way Banff National Park would be skied forever.

 

After an iconic 35 years of flying, Angel Express departed one last time on May 12th, 2024. Construction on Super Angel LX took place over the 2024 summer season and hikers of the Sunshine Meadows enjoyed live-action updates!

The new Super Angel LX is Banff Sunshine’s second heated chairlift, featuring 74 protective yellow bubble covers, keeping skiers and snowboarders warm as they carve up some of the most iconic peaks in the Canadian Rockies. Banff Sunshine Village made history in 2014 with the introduction of Teepee Town LX, its first heated bubble chairlift. With the development of Super Angel LX, Banff Sunshine is proud to feature not one, but two heated lifts in its fleet.

 

Super Angel Luxury Express is North America’s first six-passenger, heated, luxury chairlift with Leitner-Poma of America EVO technology! The latest EVO premium technology eliminates the traditional gearbox, creating for a smoother, faster and quieter ride.
