I've only been to SDC once, although the trip was three days. I have no current plans on returning, but hope to by the end of the season. This was back in April, from a Thursday to a Saturday. I was surprised to find out how big the lot(s) are. I learned quickly why there are trams. At Rope Drop, I went straight to Outlaw. I was surprised not only to see one train operation, but also that a line didn't really form until 90 minutes into park hours. At that point a second train was added. Barn Swings are wicked, especially if you get the side that hangs above the rafting river. Powder Keg was down, so went to Fire in the Hole. I was legitimately scared during my first ride. I knew about the splashdown at the end, but not much more. Powder Keg was still down (and wouldn't open until around noon the following day) so I went to WildFire. I couldn't find Flooded Mine right away, so I accidentally found myself down my Outlaw again and took it for a spin. I still couldn't find flooded mine, but somehow did with Thunderation. I find it funny that the whole ride goes on the momentum from the station, the goes up a chain, right before hitting brakes. Finally found my way to Flooded Mine. I didn't know it at first, but it would become my favorite "shoot em up" rides at a non Disney park. I still haven't ridden Justice League, but it is still impressive, especially for it's age.
