Zipride down an New Hampshire mountain
2. Zipride through the New Hampshire treetops

Though it's open yearround, Wildcat Mountain's Ziprider really attracts a crowd during the summer months, when the journey is accompanied by a cool mountain breeze in the face of Tuckerman Ravine, where it seems the snow just melted.
