Park City Mountain spokesperson Sara Huey said a guest fell from the Orange Bubble Express around 9:15 a.m. Monday.
Their condition is unknown. Huey couldn’t share more details because the guest is a minor. Park City Fire Marshal Mike Owens said the child was transferred to a hospital in the Salt Lake Valley.
A witness told KPCW the child was dangling from the lift as patrollers and other employees worked to set up a landing pad.
The child fell an estimated 25 to 30 feet and landed partially on the pad, according to the witness.
Other lift-related incidents have occurred at the resort in recent years.
A Park City Mountain ski patroller died in January 2023 after a snow-covered tree fell on the Short Cut lift at Canyons Village.
Additionally, a family filed a lawsuit earlier this year, after their daughter was injured when she fell 30 feet off the Iron Mountain Express lift in 2020.
