I rode it on June 24th last year, which is supposed to be before it
officially opens to vehicles. I found that some cars drive down from the top
quite a ways, and that when I came back down, the lower gate had been
opened. It was closed when I went up. No idea why. I probably met about a
dozen cars. Its a memorable ride though. Also, cold on the top.
