My daughter made the reservation for us during our recent trip to celebrate her birthday. I do not do well with heights, but I took a pill ;) and went along with the plan. It is an amazing ride with beautiful views of amazing Palm Springs, but I am sure I missed a lot because I had my eyes closed. I did not a beverage at the Mountain Station and was better able to take in the natural beauty surrounding us. I guess I should be glad that she did not want to go up in a helicopter or hot air balloon!!
