Great views on this 10-minute ride from the desert to the mountain. We left 60 degrees at base and found 25 and snow on ground at the top.
Pretty long wait, although in a comfortable setting, to board the tram. Recommend going early in the day, especially if you intend to hike (tough when there is snow) extensively before returning to base. Also, pricey-$29 per person for the tram, plus $10 to park.
