[0030]Some embodiments of the applicant's trolley may possess pedal power (FIG. 3) either as primary or backup propulsion. The electric motor (FIG. 12, em) is the preferred drive mechanism for ADA accessibility and ecotourism since it is quiet, although internal combustion engines in some embodiments will also serve. The electric motor also has the advantage of being non polluting and can act as a speed-limiting device through regenerative braking that restores energy to batteries. The preferred embodiment

Embodiment Construction
[0093]The cableway is placed in any desirable natural area (FIG. 1), including but not limited to more or less flat areas, hills, ravines, steep slopes, over or into valleys mountains, and along cliffs, to provide nature observation and as it may happen, scenic overviews. Access to any terrestrial habitat is envisioned including, but not limited to, estuaries, streams, rivers, forests, swamps and the like. Of course it is specifically understood that the applicant's cableway can simply be used as a transport of humans, and / or materials, and / or products as well as other uses where nature observation is not intended.
[0094]The preferred cableway may use trees as primary supports (FIG. 1). In some cases, such as in wetland and grassy areas devoid of trees or where use of trees is prohibited, the intermediate supports (FIGS. 9, 5, 6) will be modified in conventional ways and attached directly to posts, towers, pylons, buildings, telephone poles, rock faces, stanchions or any suitable sup...

Abstract
A fixed, elevated cableway having a plurality of intermediate supports for transport of persons for nature observation is described. One or more self-powered trolleys may travel simultaneously on a common cable span between two intermediate supports. Intermediate supports may join separate cable spans and/or allow tight turns. The trolley possesses one or more speed-governing devices, locks to the support cable and to intermediate supports. Combined features produce a slow-speed elevated cableway having minimal impact on the environment while providing improved installation flexibility for the purpose of nature observation.
