So you've no doubt ridden/heard of alpine slides.  They're like mini bobsled courses, only you ride down them on plastic furniture-dolly-type carts.  Well, this here is the Alpine Coaster at Park City.  It's like a one-seater roller coaster.  The cart is firmly locked onto the track, so no steering is necessary, but you control your speed with a little lever.  In the picture, I'm happily strapped into a coaster, clickety-clacking my way up to the grand adventure awaiting me at the summit, and you can see the track looping in and out of the trees up ahead.  I'm not going to lie, guys- as I zipped down that track at what I estimated was 5 million mph, I felt like Luke Skywalker blazing around the forest moon of Endor on the imperial speeder bike.  There, I said it.  Anyone who's been blessed to ride the Alpine Coaster knows what I'm talking about.  You show me someone who didn't pretend they were Luke Skywalker, and I'll show you a person that a) is a female and b) as a female, pretended she was Princess Leia.
