I'm still bothered by the fact it's rumored to be yet another replacement for something. Wished the park would just expand instead of replacing all their legacy attractions as it seems they are dead set on it being the end goal before the decades out.

obviously park expansion is necessary, but its nice that SDC is being efficient with land use. as for congestion, I've never seen the area too awful busy (unless its summer weekend/holiday) so they are probably trying to fill that area up to take pressure off of the FITH/Time Traveler areas, which are always busy. I'm curious to see if the dead end by the old FITH is connected to another pathway. would certainly open up the area.

It does seem like they are blocking one of the main paths for a park expansion with this project.

Got to see it for myself on Friday. I posted a few photos on the SDCFans FB page. The footers now seem to be mostly in place unless there are more coming. There is a straight line of footers along the first hill and drop of powderkeg down into the woods where it swoops around. Then it comes back up right next to wildfire. The track will be very close to both rides. They are cramming this thing in there.

Doesn't look like AP is being replaced. They not only extended the entrance to the tunnel, but also rebuilt the shed before the lift hill and the return water channel. Looks like it will be around for at least a decade more if they put that much work into it. Big missed opportunity to re-enhance the tunnel back to what it was like originally though...

Not my video but someone did take footage recently. And those are some pretty beefy footers. Coaster is definately bigger than Time Traveler.

Would love to see an updated footer map if anyone can sketch one up! Haven't been to the park since any of this started, but so excited to see where this project goes! I would personally love to see a Stryker coaster here like Voltron, but that may be wishful thinking
