This is not something you can prevent from happening in my opinion
Cameras are only good for youtube videos
Locks on areas where the cables are cut... Well... If an angle grinder can cut through 2" cable. A 3/8" lock is pocket change / wire fence / whatever else
Catching the guy? ��
Even if someone sees the guy trespassing, by the time anyone shows up, the damage is done and the maniac is gone
I don’t know what this thing costs to operate... but keeping the thing turning 24/7 would make it a lot hard to cut. Lol.
I think the problem in protecting the towers is the location of some of them.
I haven’t used this gondola but I’m sure that some of the towers are simply bolted into the rocks on the face of the mountain making any sort of fencing very hard to effectively install and surround the tower
With the SFU gondola I can pretty much guarantee a massive steel fence and then a “no mans land” in between a second fence that, at the very least, would slow Somone enough to get caught before doing any damage. The posibilites for protecting the SFU gondola are probably limitless compared to this one

Was hoping the RCMP would release images from Punkwax's installation, but they're holding them back it seems.
yes i'm a little curious about this too. Why would they give a reward when they can just make the video public so someone can identify the guy? Perhaps there isn't a clear footage of the guy's face? Or does it have something to do with not wanting to "compromise" the case.
^ Was somewhat surprised as well, means they don't have enough evidence nor do they have any suspect (s). Even if they had night vision camera, guy has to be smart enough to wear a mask.
