Subject: QUERY: poma lift

At Rocky Mt. ski resorts I remember a sort of ski lift, what some
dictionaries call a surface lift, that the skier straddles while being
dragged on skis up the mountain. I don't find the term poma lift
(pronounced as if spelled pomma) in any dictionary, unless I'm spelling i=
t
wrong. Can anyone tell me if this is a trademark, or if not, what its
derivation is?

Thanks,
