: too specific, I would keep with the generic, I haven't seen this in years, most places seem to have the so-called "button" lifts of the Poma type

: I would use T-bar or Poma lift if this is for an American translation - we do not say "tow lift"

Tow lift
I would run with tow lift since they don't specifically state how the skiiers are conveyed. Ankerlift is generally the term used for a T-bar lift, the Tellerlift is the button lift. Rope tow lifts also exist (just in case it comes up)
