The ride down was a bit scary. It is amazing how they can stop the train on a dime though. Even at a 36% grade....It was more difficult to take pictures as the engine car was directly in front of us, so my pictures were taken with my arm out the train window holding on to my strap for dear life....The life of the obsessed photographer. At the bottom, we looked back at the mountain and it was engulfed by a huge white cloud. Yikes...we just came through that. The experience was exhilarating, exciting, amazing, terrifying, and extreme......and we would do it again in an instant.
