  • Push to The Latest: No
In every issue of SAM we run a section called "SAM on the Road"-- a photo wrap up of happenings in the industry. Now, with the help of a helmet cam, SAM on the Road will be... in Action. This video kicks off a series of resort profiles featuring summer attractions across the country. These profiles will also be covered more in-depth in our Summer Operations issue this winter. Please stay tuned for more!

"Our first tour stop was a ride on the Heavenly Flyer at Heavenly Mountain Resort. The ZipRider travels 3,300 feet from the top of Tamarack Express to Adventure Peak dropping 525 vertical feet, and being the longest ZipRider in the lower 48 states. Buzzing one hundred people down per day, it's currently booked three days in advance, catering to every type of clientele. One adult ride costs $70, while teens and seniors ride for $66 and children under 12 can ride for $60."
