Riding down the aerial tram at Alyeska Resort

With snow-capped mountains and snowpack from a harsh winter still covering most of the ground, here's a look at what its like riding the Alyeska Aerial Tram back down the mountain. It's a three-to-seven minute scenic ride from the Hotel Alyeska, gaining 2300 feet in elevation to the top of Mount Alyeska, where you can see for miles in all directions.
