"B&M will NEVER build a coaster over 300 ft..." until 2012
"Cedar Fair will NEVER build a coaster taller than MF..." until 2015 Ok im back and I survived..wait this isn't HHN, but anyway here are some MM shots. While talking to a ride op at lumberjack falls I found out some interesting tid bits about the park and the coaster itself. She seemed to know her stuff and it made me even more intrigued with this ride. The actual building should be complete by the end of the month then work will be focused on the show scenes since the track is already completed. Also the buzzard now tells a story about the grandson of some miner and how he took off his boots in the mine and was whistling and stuff started to happen. All I can say is that I feel this will be the best new attraction of 07!

Personally, I like KY rumbler better, but this is a minority opinion. Thunderhead is fun, but there is little airtime, which makes me subtract a few points. Back seat rides are fun, but they started to hurt my elderly back after a while. So, I think it's a good ride, but a bit overrated. Jarmor, thanks for the Mystery Mine pics. That mine house looks awesome. Dollywood sure has their act together when it comes to theming. Wow, great pics! Especially of MM, I've been looking around for new updates!
So then, does this mean that the big drop at the end is inside the building? 1. Skyrush | 2. Maverick | 3. The Voyage | 4. El Toro | 5. Outlaw Run
6. Millennium Force | 7. I-305 | 8. Medusa: SC | 9. X2 | 10. Phoenix Coasters: 290 Parks: 51 ^yeah it will be in there along w/ some other "special effects"

It does have cross overs galore AND it gives that out of control feel and some decent pops of ![]() On to some more photos! First I want to say I left my tripod at home so some of the pics maybe a tad bit blurry but they are still pretty good. I am now on my quest to find PEOPLE in this park. I really hope it will be this slow on april 13th ![]()

Wow, Tower of Terror at Dollyfood looks great!
Is this REALLY the Addams family coaster concept? Now that you mention it it does seem VERY familiar to the Paramount survey concept art. If it is then why, by Tom Cruise's beard, did they go with the stinky Italian Job? So it looks like MM closes out the back end of Thunderhead Gap. Does this rule out the idea of a pathway connecting T-headGap to the back of craftsman valley? I don't want to have to walk through crowds of old people at the entrance just to get to the new B&M! Great pictures Jarve, even if you did forget the tripod...sigh... ![]() -Don
What new B&M? Mystery Mine is a Gerstlauer ride. Do you know something that I don't? Here's to hoping for that new B&M hyper at Dollywood. Doesn't seem out of reach considering what they shelled out for Mystery Mine.
