I bet they'll do quite well on this. When we did the Aerial Treetops course this past summer, there was a good, constant flow of people -- and that cost $45 bucks a pop. Also -- consider how long four or five minutes of actual zipping would be. The longest one on the Aerial Treetops (and i believe there are six total) was about 10-15 seconds -- and that's a long zip). So you're looking at something 16-20x as long. Plus, the view. Personally, I will be doing it in the spring, if not in January. Thinking it might be a cool option when I pass through after delivering daughter back to school in Montreal in January.

Default Boone NC

Up near Boone NC, they claim it is the longest zip line in North America. A good 10 minutes on one line. I checked it out and it was closed. I recall the admission was a lot less than Gunstock.
