at the end of the day.”
Rushmore Mountain Coaster

alpine coaster. You can control how fast you maneuver the rails. My husband goes full
speed. I am just a bit slower but still pretty fast. You can't go just once, so be sure to get the
wristband!"

down the mountainside. Once you reach the bottom, the ride isn't over It will accelerate
