💬 What Visitors Say
- Complete your online liability waiver before arriving to skip the ticket purchase line and maximize your ride time, especially important if you booked a limited time slot.
- Visit during evening hours (close to closing time) for a potentially less crowded experience and better one-on-one attention from staff, as one visitor rode solo 7 times in under an hour.
- The ride is an 'all you can ride' format for one hour with 5.5 minutes down and 7-9 minutes per ascent/descent cycle - you can complete multiple runs in a single session if timing allows.
- Price is significantly high at $45/person; consider visiting in winter months when rates drop to ~$25, or ask about hotel discounts if staying at Snow King Resort or nearby properties.
- Call ahead at 307-201-5667 during extreme cold or after heavy snowfall to confirm operation, as the coaster frequently closes due to inclement weather.
