Ah, thx. We had an nice snow day last year. We rode Taron while it was dark and snowing - quite an experience. The only problem was to find our car on the parking lot under the snowβ¦ and to leave via its slippery hills. Luckily we left during the showβs finale. Other guest needed 3 hours for this.
