angryemobeaver Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 I Recently moved from Kansas City to Saint Clair County, Illinois which is really close to St. Louis Missouri. I live about 20 Minutes from Lake Aspen Missouri. That lake has many resorts, and tons of stuff to do including an amusement park. It's called Aspen Lakes Park & Resort. It got bought out by Cedar Fair about 17 Years ago. It's a pretty major Park and competes with Six Flags Saint Louis, and even though SFSTL has more coasters, Aspen Lakes has better coasters and more to do. I have only been to Aspen Lakes once and it was about 10 Years ago when I was 6. And since I'm a huge Coaster Enthusiast and live so close I'm going to buy my season pass once the park opens for the season in a few months! For now Here are some photos I got from the website. The oldest building at the park is Aspen Lakes Theater, it was actually a real theater for almost 50 Years before the park was even built! The newest coaster at the park is Copperhead, an Intense B&M Invert that resembles Silver Bullet at Knotts. New this season is Snake River Fall's, a massive Intamin Water ride similar to Holiday World's Pilgrims Plunge, only ours is about 20 Feet Shorter. Lake Aspen's Impressive Skyline!

christianscoasters Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Wow!!! Is Snake River Falls operational? Or is it just SBNO with elevator scenery? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
traincrossin Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Wow! This place looks great! I to am curious about Snake River Falls. I had no idea that there was even that kind of custom scenery! Very impressive, I can't wait to see more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBru Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Snake River Falls looks AMAZING! (And much better than HW's, with the steeper drop and higher amount of tilting on the lift.) I like the park's skyline---lots of cool stuff there. Can't wait for more updates! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
