Admission to Anakeesta included all day park access and unlimited scenic rides via the enclosed Gondola, open chair lift, or Ridge Rambler (large road vehicle). On this date, the entry line was over an hour long because it was raining and people did not want to ride in the open chair lift. So the two RV Gypsies and family took the Ridge Rambler up the mountain. |

The Treetop Skywalk has over 880 feet of connected bridges (more than when the two RV Gypsies were there in 2020). the swinging bridges hang 40-60 feet in the air. At this time, it claims to be the longest tree-based skywalk in North America. |
