Have things changed at Paradise Point recently? I was looking at thier website and noticed the tram is $16 r/t and, does Alex still serve dinner? Is there still the tram/dinner/sunset package for $30-40 (?) The bar menu kind of looks like the old menu (maybe a few new things). The website appiers to be up-dated. Most of all...can you drive up and park as in the past, and did they drop the "local pass"?
Thanks
Yes, there have been a few changes of late. Cannot drive up on certain nights (Wed. and Thu.), restaurant has great food now, and there is a locals yearly pass still available for $20.
