The Matterhorn in Disneyland, 1993

The Matterhorn in Disneyland, 1993
A miniature imitation of the Matterhorn featuring a bobsled ride is one of the attractions at Disneyland in Anaheim, California. Matterhorn Bobsleds opened in 1959 and is a 1/100 scale replica (147 feet in height) of the actual mountain in the Swiss Alps, although not exact. The attraction was one of the first E ticket rides in Disneyland Park, with the Submarine Voyage being the first in the same summer. The Matterhorn is said to be the first roller coaster with metal tracks. It is rumoured that there is a basketball field (or a baseball field) inside the ride. The field is said to create a loophole in the California building height restrictions law (because the law does not apply to sports buildings).
