Good news is they have been testing Zumanjaro over the last week or so.

Still down.

Word is both trains were running on Freeze yesterday.

The current plan is to reopen the slingshot soon once they get state approval.

New entrance? Trams are a bit further away and people complain about the parking everyday. And they continue to remove history and cut down trees on their way to building a much, much bigger park.

I finally got to SDC last week. I've wanted to ride Fire In Hole for 35+ years. Had to do it before they rebuilt it. Also wanted to do Flooded Mine since it had been 20+ years since I rode it at Dollywood. SDC is incredible. Top tier park. Time Traveler is crazy but the back car is nuts out of the station. Can't wait to go back. Did the regular and latern cave tours a couple hours apart. Both guides were so good.

They have started laying rebar and digging foundations in the new area. Its had pretty good activity for a month or so now.

Time Traveler, back row. The drop out the station is amazing.

That would be true for any coaster, yet this is the only one I've seen run an empty train with bags for hours (and presumably the entire operating day). I did leave an hour or two before closing.

Why do they run an empty Boss train with bags instead of storage it somewhere? Honest question. I realize it can valley easily and they don't want to keep removing and loading the bags, but why run the train for hours this way instead of storing it in the shed?

That makes sense. Which also makes it surprising under the new regime. Do they require activation at home park? Didn't look far enough to find out.

St Louis still had napkins and utensils out for customers yesterday.

Holiwood Nights is back. Lines today were short all day. ERT was a 2 or 3 train wait on Voyage, and walk on for the others. Day 1 I got 5 or 6 on Raven and Legend. Roughly 20 laps on the Voyage with over half at night in the dark trimless. Such a good time today.

No, I really don't think that was the case. Seems at least a couple emmployees were in the park with a stack handing them out to anyone. Breakers had stacks as well. Good any night of the event Ive also heard Costermania was an absolute shit show.

Employees were literally giving away Wild Frontier tickets in the park tonight. Sales must be stellar!

New parking setup at Dollywood is seriously a head scratcher. Arrive early and it's not a problem. Hope it doesn't rain because you'll get very wet walking to the tram station. Seems strange they moved it so far out. Otherwise, park was dead today. Longest wait was maybe 15 minutes on Firechaser. LR was a 10 min wait most of the day and was running good. Drop Line is still closed but now has seatbelts installed.

No to FL at the hotel.

Pretty sure they use a non-3D video now and it seems to be less blurry than the old 3D stuff (or they just turned off the 3D setting). I don't really see anyone complaining about it. Most people seem to prefer it without the 3D.

Many Six Flags parks have removed the 3D from Justice League this year. People seem to prefer it without.

Lighting Run is the worst line and slowest loading. I'd start with LR myself. It's rare people wander all the way to Storm Chaser. Lines are never long back there. Same for KY Flyer.

Just an FYI, but I didn't know BGW had a coaster tour on Wed/Sat. $80 to see some control rooms and maintenance sheds. You also get to see the drop track in action and stand near it.

Sometimes less than 30 min. More along the lines of a weekday or Sunday at other parks. But, it's also really hard to tell. These are the times I've seen the last couple of years on FB groups folks post about how empty and great the park was that day.

CP is traditionally fairly quiet the 2 weekends leading up to their Halloween event. During the week mid/late June should be a bit quieter. Groups are heavy end of May and first part of June as schools end.

I would get up early, drive to KK and have a great day. Then, decide if you need more time there. If so, you can split between the parks since you gain the hour you spend driving between them. Then, decide again if you need another day at HW before driving back home.

No. Just Friday and Saturday.
