Cliff's and NM Rattler questions??

I'm heading from Vegas to San Antonio a week from Wed. (6/25/03)! I plan to stop at Cliff's (Alburqurque) on Thursday 6/26/03 when it opens at 11:00 am! I need to head to San Antonio that day so I will not be there long! My goal is to ride Rattler as much as possible and get one ride in on the Galaxy! I just want to make sure that Rattler does indeed open at 11:00 am with the rest of the park!? It does not have a later opening does it? Also, are there any discounts/etc.? Should I just pay the $2.50 admission and buy the tickets to ride this thing a few times? Or will the lines justify buying a wristband so I can get multiple rides in my short 1-2 hours I plan on being there? Any ride descriptions/reviews would be appreciated! I tried to get there during last year's road trip, but CCI's situation sort of put a damper on the ride opening date! :-)

Thank you in advance for any information/responses!

The New Mexico Rattler should open up with the rest of the park, and you probably won't have too much trouble with lines until later in the day. If you happen to find a brochure (I grabbed one at the motel I was staying at), there is a coupon with a small discount. Also, I'd go with a wristband if you think you want more than just one or two rides.

Here is a link to my recent trip report

Thank you for the trip report link! I'm more pumped for this ride than any other on this upcoming trip!
