+ About this map
Somebody at Cannon kept count, and by the time the original aerial tramway was retired in 1980 the total stood at exactly 6,581,338 passengers. It was the first passenger aerial tramway in North America when it opened on June 28, 1938, after two weather delays, and more than 100,000 people rode it that first summer. Its replacement’s red and yellow cars were promptly nicknamed Ketchup and Mustard, and Cannon is now the only mountain in North America planning a third-generation tram. The state-owned mountain beneath it, steep, icy, and exposed in Franconia Notch, remains one of the most challenging ski areas in the East.
