rope tow

The place isn’t huge—just one triple chair, a rope tow, and 1,100 skiable acres—but the base area is at 7,100 feet in elevation, the highest in Oregon, making cold, dry snow all but guaranteed.

It was the first ski resort in Wyoming, opening in 1939 with a rope tow powered by a Ford tractor.

She tugged on the black rope that wrapped around his thighs and torso, her leather gloves creaking with each adjustment.

“I like decorating my slaves,” she said, referencing the rope, her thin, crimson-coated lips peeling off her front teeth.

Trump even gave Jackson a personal tour of the venue, with television cameras in tow.

From the roof of the barn is a long loop of rope, through this the turkey is suspended by its legs.

The driver then got on the highway and started going "well above the speed limit," with the taxi inspector still in tow.

It occurred to him then, for the first time, that a third resource was open—he might cut the rope, and let the kite go free!

Once the rope got tangled around Squinty's foot, and he jumped over it to get free.

All this while Squinty was chewing on the apple which he had picked up from the ground after he had jumped over the rope.

Every few days after that the boy took Squinty out of his pen, and let him do the rope-jumping and the acorn-hunting tricks.

And it did not take Squinty long to learn to jump the rope when there was no apple on the other side.
