Sunshine, even if you don't park like a chump (me). The gondola really isn't that slow, a little under 15 minutes I believe (or less than 10 if you want to ride the goat in the morning). I usually just walk out of my truck without really getting anything ready, and then get gear together in the gondola. By the time your boots are laced etc your there.

You can also get your sunshine card linked to your credit card and go direct to lift. The lines are often terrible for lift tickets, but you can go inside and use a self serve machine which is usually pretty quick.
