If you remember correctly - a few of us said the contracts had been signed earlier this year.

Is that a C L before the word coaster? What does the C L mean?

CL means "Centerline"...........so that would mean center of the track.

I agree. Any construction projects CL stands for Center Line. Not sure without seeing the entire area if it is the CL of the track though. Could be CL of anything related to the project. I.E Load building or even a pathway. But, you might know more about that particular marker .

People saying things on message boards are meaningless...the stakes in the ground are proof that contracts have been signed to me.  I'm a show-me kind of guy even though I'm not actually from MO.

If you ride Thunderation, they are constructing what looks to be a maintenance lot by the uphill climb on the coaster

Im surprised nobody said this yet, but Im concerned since this coaster looks like it will be even closer to EH than TNT is. Will this ride and the screaming affect the show or bother the audience? I know all rides close when EH starts, but it might distract the audience during the pre-show, and when the rides and EH show are both running thru Moonlight Madness. CC closed its rides while the water/lazer show was running, I think because the sound of the rides and screaming would have distracted the audience. Will they close this coaster during the EH show and start it up again after the fireworks are done? I sure hope so. Also, until the coaster is done, the sound of the construction machines might be distracting as long as they are working on this coaster.

[Swoosh]

Distracting like crying babies, right? 

I'm sure the park has it all figured out already

[Dewayne]

A baby cant ride a coaster.

Thanks, Cap.


I will say this,....if EH were to be moved, shouldn't razed  before a coaster boxed the existing one in. The road we are seeing built could also be the new access point for EH. To make it a better facility for larger acts and expanded use,they may included new dressings rooms, ect as part of a larger structure that doubles as a show building for the coaster.

[Swoosh]

I'm sure the road can/will double for both EH access and the construction site

There's a big excavator on the new road now. More cleared out than it was, but obviously a lot to do just to get back in there. Couldn't get pics since I was driving, but its pretty close to the turnoff

[Grapeslie]

I'm gonna be there tomorrow I'll try to grab some more pictures see what I find.  I'm excited to finally have ground moving! I assume they will start teasing fairly soon which should give us an idea of a possible theme hopefully.

So I haven't been down into echo hollow yet, but I can't see a single flag from GE or the dining area. Maybe I'm not as eagle-eyed, or maybe they've been pulled, or maybe I'm just mistaken on my assumption of where they are. Do you have to go down the echo hollow path to see them?

The flags are by the restrooms in EH.  So yes you will have to go down the path once it opens. The other flags can be seen by the swings in GE but the ones way out there can not be seen anymore due to the foliage filling in

Big clearing right beside the TnT lift hill.....ill post a pic I took from TnT when I get home.
