Read before posting, that was already answered in detail.

Whizzer's pond connects to the creek behind Orbit (and used to connect to the creek by Deja Vu's line) then connects to the creek by BBNP and Mooseburger Lodge. The water by the Yankee/Yukon bridge is not connected to the flumes pond, there is a wall under the V2 bridge, and I have seen the Flumes pond dry while that water is still full.

Exactly. Buccaneer Battle will be treated just like any water ride in the park. Chlorinated.

Not connected to any ponds or rivers.
I finally retired the Sarah Palin signature because she is now 100% irrelevant.

These new park look a lot more spaced out than the older ones. A lot more colorful too.


There's people on the larger maps, but not on the ones directly from the guide.

Citigraph had people drawn onto the maps (the poster sized ones at least), was always a nice touch. Then Six Flags dropped them and went to the current setups.

The maps look outstanding. Will make great backgrounds for scrapbooking pages.

If only it looked exactly like that...we can dream. By the looks of it we don't really have that much room for a new coaster except in County Fair...Does any1 think we will see SSA down BEFORE 2009 season is out?

IF SSA is standing on opening day, I would highly doubt it would be torn down this season. If they do in fact have plans for that space for 2010, I bet it starts to come down during fright fest and they close off that whole area seeing as sky trek would be closed anyways. If they use pictorium during fright fest they could easily empty the theater through one of the "front" doors to keep that whole area walled off if need be. Would be a good excuse though for the park to not have to staff the theater and keep it closed :)

If it leaves, there's a good chance Area 51 will return to the Iron Wolf side of County Fair for FF.

Looks like there is something on/near the lift catwalk at the top of the lift, but the picture is too small to actually see anything

The lift track is black. Is that just some sort of protective covering?

Could it be shadowed?

It looks like it close up because of the chain being above the track, there is a wide space.....making a shadow.

Doubt that^

Why would they have it black, then paint it yellow just to paint it black again later?

Not something SFGAm would do.

I already did.

I said it could possible be the shadow....Which it does look like a shadow if you look REALLY close.
