OMG !!! I thought water was deadly and roof tops, but THIS !!! AAAAACKKKK ))

WHy why why are you still alive? All this traveling in other countries, hotel rooms the size of a single bed with standing room, VEry odd foods, now this two man slingshot up a mountain. Yikes woman. These are exactly why I am a flatlander in the middle of the corn. Flat. Ahhhhh.. ))))

Wow, look at those views! Gorgeous. I’ve been on plenty of chair lifts/gondolas while skiing, but I have a feeling this one would freak me out a bit!

That's beautiful. Looks really neat. Would give me the willies but I'd get over it. Squaw Valley at Lake Tahoe has a good gondola/ski lift. In June one year, I took a couple visiting from Brazil up there for the ride. It had been a big snow year. First time that they had ever seen snow.

My dad was not a fan of heights. As a kid, he stepped out of his comfort zone and took me on a small gondola in an amusement park by the beach.(my brother was too small) In a couple minutes, it took a turn and started going out over the ocean. My dad was ready to climb back on the wire!! Can only imagine your thrilling ride, with mom right there. Kudos for your adventuresome spirit and sharing the day!

Those shots are GORGEOUS! But I'm with Kate, how are you still alive?? 😂 Those buckets look like they could dump you over in an instant!

This reminds me: never take a two-year-old on a ferriswheel.

So wonderfully cool. If you can't fly it's at least it's in the right direction.

Sounds like going up in a balloon, which I would never do.

Oh wow!, I want to go but I'd never get Erin on that thing. BTW, we have booked an Italy cruise for May!

Can't wait.

Looks magnificent! Very jealous of those views. Been in a few different chairlifts but nothing quite like this. I imagine you've got to stay quite still as you go up to avoid some scary swaying? 😂😅
