Dozens of skiers were stranded Saturday when a chairlift at Mont Ste. Marie stopped working.

The ski resort, located about an hour north of Ottawa and offering 20 runs, tweeted just before 4 p.m. that all the skiers had been rescued, and were “off and safe.”

It had earlier tweeted that it was removing people from the lift “as a precaution.”

There was no report of injuries, although paramedics were reportedly on the scene.

Resort owner Bob Sudermann tweeted that the problem was related to a bearing, which he hoped would get fixed Saturday. The resort later said the issue had been resolved.
