"The scenic chairlift is $7 per person to ride, and the weight capacity on the lift is 400 pounds (181 kg). The total ride lasts about 30 minutes. Riders can either get off halfway and ride the alpine slide down, or go all the way up. The unique ride runs up into the virtually untouched summit of the mountain and at the top, there is a scenic overlook to take pictures and listen to a live band playing bluegrass music. (There are other mountains with the same or better views, but the only way to get there is by a three- or four-hour hike.)"
