What a fantastic evening at Miner's Landing Pier 57!

We got a behind-the-scenes look at Sasquatch Mountain, with an exclusive lights-on tour, a panel with the team behind the attraction, and the chance to experience it ourselves.

A huge thank you to Miner’s Landing for their incredible hospitality, including a beautiful sunset cruise and dinner on the waterfront.

Thank you to our sponsors and panelists for making the evening possible, and a special thank you to Tricia Enseng for all her help bringing the event together.
