mid-station

Intermediate transfer point

A mid-station is an intermediate stop on a cable car, gondola, or ski lift system—a point between the base and summit where passengers can board or exit.

Skiers use mid-stations to access specific terrain or avoid crowds at the main terminals: We got off at the mid-station to ski the lower runs.
