It is right before you enter the Big Thompson Canyon when coming up from Loveland. Unique little shop. There is a tower you can climb to get a view of the nearby waterfall. I also love their play on words. "The best store by a dam site."

Great way to see the views. Aaron took his children there for his daughter's birthday. He said it was great fun to watch the look's on people's faces when the got off the ride. That everyone from 7 to 70 got off with the biggest smiles on their faces. You control your own speed and most people go back for a second ride.
