The metal grommet at the top of the ticket is a telling sign of the era. In general, metal grommets came into use in the late 1960s. They were everywhere during the 1970s, and were replaced by wicket tickets during the 1980s.

The T-bar was located behind the Berthoud Pass Lodge on the eastern side of the highway. The chairlift was located across the road at this point in time.

This ticket came to the archives along with CB-0650B.
