Did anyone do it?

It was a beautiful weekend to do it. The only rain was late last night.

Headed up to Hunter on Saturday in driving rain to check out the new Zipline Tour. Luckily, the rain let up and we got to see the mid-mountain zipline. Our main reservations about it going in were pricing-related, wondering if people will pony up $89 or $109 for a 2.5-hour tour. The guy in charge explained that it's not being positioned as something you'd do once or twice a week, like skiing, but rather as a special event. Makes sense now, and I'd recommend it.

WOW, didn't realize the admission price. probably puts it out of my plans (group of 8 looking for a fun afternoon) but won't totally rule it out. probably settle for less expensive (less exciting) option.

I went up this Saturday. We had a blast. Well worth the price of admission! I can't wait for the top of the mountain ziplines to open. FYI it looks like they used footage from their N.H. zipline for the promo video.

I was there on Saturday - there was a group of people waiting for the zipline, however there was noone on the adventure tower.
