It's enough to make local weather forecasters issue a "Tennessee Tornado Warning!"

But, no one is more surprised than Dolly to discover that she is also his co-pilot! Ride along with these two as you conquer land, air and water-not to mention a really big bear-as well as a train and one really steep waterfall. It's one hilarious adventure after another, but the breathtaking views of the Smokies and the surrounding countryside make for a trip that you won't soon forget.

A fire is just minutes away from engulfing this 1880s town. If you choose to ride, you’re instantly recruited to battle this mighty blaze.

Soon, it’s apparent that the only way to douse the flames is water—and plenty of it!
