Program Notes
You can't get any closer than the Zip Line! From the top of the mountain, imagine flying down the wire at record speeds while viewing the most picturesque and beautiful scenes nature has to offer. During your adventure, you will fly over a beautiful ravine, waterall, and a lush green forest. Feel the wind on your face and zip through the trees just like a bird would do.
