This is a pleasant ride across the mountains with incredible views all around. Definitely the highlight of the trip and you even get to do it twice!

We rode the gondola in the first week of June and most of the snow was gone. It was the last day of the skiing season, so we did catch a glimpse of die hard skiers in action.

Pretty amazing to still be skiing in June!
