Skier's conveyance

Answer:

TBAR

Hint:

This overhead lift carries two riders at once by their waist or seat, often found on beginner slopes.

Explanation:

A "T-bar" is a type of ski lift where riders stand on skis while holding onto a T-shaped bar that pulls them uphill. The clue plays on "conveyance," meaning a way to transport skiers up the mountain, and the answer is simply abbreviated to "TBAR" for crossword brevity. It’s a common term in skiing, so solvers familiar with winter sports would recognize it right away.
