I took mine on the coaster, but it was firmly in it's case, tightly held
between my feet.

I was disappointed to see the "splash guards" on the "parachute drop"
ride (forgot the name - they lift you up about 100 feet, and then drop
you). It would be hard to see what you're getting a picture of, unless
you're willing to click off some shots and see what you get.

But I did get a couple of very good shots, mostly of the Hollywood area,
the bear mountain sculpture, and the grizzly flats area.

Fun place, but $45??? Get a clue, Mike.
