Trip to Alyeska resort

We went to Anchorage for 5 days.  While we were there, we went to the Alyeska resort where they have a tram to the top of the mountain. It was a little nerve-wracking because you get to the top of the mountain in about 5 minutes!  Not to mention it's not good for motion sickness and fear of heights.  But we got some great pictures of the trip up the mountain, and of the Cook Inlet!

 This is from the resort at THE BOTTOM of the hill.  See that tiny building on top of the mountain?  That's were the tram goes.

 Ahhh, the tram!!!  I was so nervous getting on this thing, but Jeff was perfectly fine.  They had a problem last year with a tram in a bad windstorm,  that caused it to swing and hit the tower.  The poor people on it were stuck for 5 hours, so you can understand my concern.  Here's a quick link so you can see why I was nervous.  http://skitheworld.com/2013/01/alyeska-tram-accident/
