  1. We stayed at the Tru near Dollywood and it was great. They have a roof deck that was nice and you could see the fireworks from Dollywood if you don't stay until close. Can't say anything about the mountain coasters but there are a ton of them in the area. Only downside in my opinion for Pigeon Forge is it's very touristy along the main drag in town.
  2. I don't have much of a trip report in terms of rides as Dollywood was absolutely slammed! Big Bear is a lot of fun and will only get better as the landscaping grows in around it. Caught an absolutely rare day with Lightning Rod where is opened 30 minutes late and I never saw it go down in the app. That is one hell of a coaster. The park is beautiful and have some of the friendliest employees I have come across.
  3. First time visit set for Monday, should I wait to buy a TimeSaver at the park or get it ahead of time?
  4. Information is back online. https://www.kingsdominion.com/blog/2023/introducing-the-all-park-passport
  5. Another angle of the Grizzly construction. Photo credit goes to Mike Sturg.
  6. If anything, you'll see security stepped up to make people feel safer.
  7. Let me preface that I have not been to BGT since before Gwazi opened. While the above is true, it's going to depend on how clearly the no cell phone policy is posted and audibly communicated. Given the number of cell phone incidents on RMC coasters which have resulted in metal detectors, locker usage enforcement, signage, and audible recordings, etc. If these aren't in use at BGT it can open up a small window of liability. Again, given the number of incidents with previous RMC coasters, they can't hide behind it's the person's fault for being their phone on with them. Share the blame, absolutely.
  8. Likely they couldn't begin any changes to the ride due to possible pending litigation (probably including a NDA). They were probably already well into the operating season once that cleared up and they definitely aren't going to work on any queue/plaza modifications while the park is open 7 days a week. IMO, they are getting prepared to move/modify queue with fencing of some sort along the launch and brake areas to prevent this from happening again.
  9. KD isn't going to get the Volcano replacement until their 50th. Why would they waste a new coaster to not coincide with the parks anniversary? WoF is long overdue some serious investment.
  10. Sad news. I feel for the family. https://www.kctv5.com/2022/07/12/child-found-unresponsive-oceans-fun-pool-dies-injuries/
  11. Wait and see as mid-week is hit and miss. Fast lane won't sell out before you get there.
  12. The campground is a great option, as long as you plan on cooking your own food. Again, the only food options in Doswell are KD, Burger King, 7-11, and gas station fried chicken. Ashland is 1 exit south and has plenty of food options.
