Brief clip of the San Diego Zoo's Skyfari unloading operations. This 1969 Von Roll Aerial Tram is 3/4 of a mile long and 189 feet high at it's highest point. This type 101 Aerial Tram was #95 of 108 built from 1945 to 1977. #94 was Cedar Point in Ohio. #85 was Sea World San Diego.
Yup, Great America California has one of the last Von Roll 101's built - #106 of 108. I believe there are only 14 Von Rolls left in operation worldwide and California is blessed with three of those.
