I'm not a big fan of heights and I like them even less when I have to give control of going up or down to someone or something else, like wheels and pulleys. That being the case, it was a big step for me to ride the Mt. Robert's tram in Juneau last week. I've been to Juneau probably 20 times and never wanted to ride the tram. This time the incentive was that the hike up was so muddy I was afraid I'd be a gonner falling somewhere on the way down, plus after I bought a water bottle (I'd left mine in Anchorage) the ride down for myself and my friend was free.
