Bit of a sidebar but related to Rocky Mountain, here's a pic of the reworking of the Rattler in San Antonio



I love when rides take advantage of the terrain, and that's some great terrain!

anybody? how far is that drop?  that is quite a cliff/bluff..

That is Six Flags Fiesta Texas, in San Antonio. The park was built into an old quarry. It is actually really cool how the park fits snugly into the quarry.
Now, about the height you ask?? Dont know!  :-\
You have a great past just ahead of you.

Dollar, i pulled up their website hoping for pictures,,, all they had was a map of park... But it does look like they layed it in the quarry very nicely...  looks like there was some serious planning done...

From the Bing shots you can see where the woodie actually passes through real tunnels in the quarry walls.

Would love to see the progress that is getting made on the new Pizza restaurant in the former Tom Sawyers Landing.

I would too. I am really looking forward to it. Or at least seeing pictures through my dear sweet friends who go...
The smell of asphalt and butane says home!

SDC Facebook shows a picture of them cleaning up the Outlaw Run area with the following caption "Seems to be a lot of activity at Outlaw Run today. Must be preparing for something......"

I wonder what they are preparing for?

The posted another picture with the caption,"Do you ever wonder what this track would look like with a train on it? The Outlaw Run workers are definitely getting ready for something..."
       I hope it's a video of the testing ;D
You have a great past ahead of you.

I am kind of surprised that the station shows no gates. I wonder why they havent installed those. Or that picture could be older. Maybe because of staining the floor. Less of a hassle to stain the floor before the gates are installed.

just noticed that there are marking where the gates go on the floor.
