I don't know if anyone else remembers it but just north of springfield on 13 there used to be a place called snow bluff. We went there a few times but like was mentioned by junior about mid way through the day the snow would start to melt and the mud would come through. With today's technology they should do better but they probably wont have ski slopes. At the winter Olympic games in Canada they had such a hard time with snow they had to use dumptrucks to haul it in at times and they had hundreds of snow machines.

I remember that very well,  i never went..  But if you know where to look yopu can easily spot the old slopes;;

read in the Branson Daily Independent last week that Dollywood has pulled out of this deal due to Gaylord Entertaninment restructuring themselves and making it impossible for Dolly to remain invovled.
SDC has always made a great past to remember

Could this be a power play to kill the project?

Opryland hotel is being managed by Marriot now. I was there this past summer, went to the Chesney Mcgraw concert there. Being I'm just a overgrown kid, I couldn't help but wonder it one of the atriums couldn't be turned into an indoor waterpark.
