Since the tail end of last winter, we've watched anxiously as the tram took form. First the towers went up and then the cables were strung. After that, crews began working on the new and improved upper and lower tram docks. But yesterday might have been the most exciting day yet as crews hoisted the two new, faster, larger tram cars onto the cables completing the process.

Draped in red covers until the official unveiling party on December 19th, the new cars will be tested in the months to come, carrying loads of water barrels up and down the mountain to ensure that, when the time comes, they're ready for the 100 passengers who will pile in to get to the top of Jackson Hole Mountain Resort in just nine minutes.

Don't miss the tram launch on December 19th. Join all those who have been waiting patiently for the past two years to celebrate Big Red. The party will take place in Teton Village and will feature the unveiling of the new cars as the covers are pulled and the new tram meets the world for the first time.
