The cable will become so hot that it will snap and fall to the ground, leading eventually to this (warning: lots of gore):

Google has noticed my interest in gondolas.
Here's one issue we don't have to worry about in Florida. Though it once again shows how well the gondolas stay on the cable.

Thats when the automatic spice dispensers turn on and they just call the Flame Tree recovery van to pick up a fresh load.

You would think that this would just comfort all the naysayers with the clearly automatic spray in case of high heat.
Damn these Gondolas and their....

Haha, much better than AC for cooling. A quick spray of snow as each cabin passes under should keep things nice and cool. Too bad the video didn’t surface 600 pages ago

The video also neglected to describle the various flavors that are added to the spray. My favorites are hickory and mesquite.

I shift between utter bemusement and hotter than gondola passenger blood boiling rage every time I catch up on this thread.
Anyways I had the chance to check out Big Sky’s D-liner (which is currently the only Dopplemayr North American installation until Disney comes online).
I want to reiterate what @Lift Blog said about how quiet this thing is. A detachable quad (Swift current) exists about 50 meters away. While it has that typical 1/3 volume of a lawn mower/generator... that’s about all you can actually hear standing in line for Ramcharger. It really makes almost no noise whatsoever.
A little bit of a low frequency hum as you crest towers (but no high frequency slight vibration that some chairlifts can occasionally get). Smooth as silk and oh so sexy.
Photo proof that I rode it and survived. Moments before the sun popped out and another cabin burst into flames (amateurs).

Do you know what the nubs on the towers through CBR are for? They're the only towers to have them.
