In it's first five weeks of operation, Palo Duro Zip Line has proven to be popular.  So popular an expansion is planned for the attraction.

The zip line is about a quarter of a mile long and begins 469 feet above the canyon floor.  The attraction is located close to the entrance of Palo Duro Canyon.  The owners have been happily surprised at the brisk and often repeat visitors to the ride.

It's been so successful that new attractions are planned.  First up is a rappelling.  Employees have undergone training for hosting a rappelling wall that features over a 130 foot drop.

As long as the weather holds out, the attraction will remain open year round.
