Great to see them moving along quickly. RMC really is one of the best in the business! Major props to them for staying on schedule through the brutal winter we had. May 24th can't come soon enough!

Those are great pictures

Where did you take the picture of the overbank with the water in it?

From Milwaukee Avenue (on the grass)...zoomed in and then cropped in tighter at home post-processed.

Those are great pictures

Thanks, I enjoy doing it (ever since Raging Bull construction), just wish I had better access to the construction site.

Great photos! It is good to see the lift hlll going vertical. I have been waiting for the lift hill to start going vertical for quite a long time now. The warm weather is sure making RMC go very fast. It seems that the entire ride could very well be complete by the end of the month or before.

[Jacklw6499]

So excited! Props to Rocky Mountain of really kicking it into overdrive. The dive loop is almost finished in a matter of days? And the lift is going up? This is crazy!

[SFGAm#1Fan]

From the webcam view, It doesn't seem like they did much with the lift hill today other than bring in that one section to the site earlier this morning.

The video shows them making great progress on the station. I am very happy to hear that there will be a single rider line for Goliath.

[Dmrbug]

The video reported that there will be a single riders line!

I'm liking the looks of the station so far!

Thank you for posting this video, Iron Wolf 90-11. I am very happy to find out that Goliath will have a single rider line!

I'm very happy to hear Goliath will have a Single Rider line since I ride coasters by myself!

This is by far the best pic I have seen of this ride. Good job getting the whole structure in this shot.

[BBH]

Good to hear about the single rider line, I don't often go alone but when I do this'll be a treat.

[SFGAm#1Fan]

I'm excited about the single rider line! The only downside and the thing I dislike about single rider lines is when you see a giant group of teenagers, adults, whoever together and they think "Hey lets avoid this long line and all ride separate!"

[Jacklw6499]

Did anyone also notice the brake run is really coming along in the beginning of the new Goliath Insider video? Also it looks like quite a few things have been added to the station and that shouldn't take too long to complete. I'm expecting the dive loop to be finished by the end of the week as well as quite a bit of the lift hill up. Hopefully the coaster will be finished by the end of the first week of may, or even by the end of April?!!

New map for 2014 has been posted recently, this really shows how much they're advertising Goliath's awesomeness: https://www.sixflags.com/sites/default/ ... ullmap.pdf

Also, Riptide Bay is now listed as one attraction, not for it's individual attractions inside the expansion

[acer711]

So will Goliath's tunnel be covered? According to the map it doesn't look like it.

[anewman35]

The map confirms, the height minimum is 48", no max is listed.

Nice find Kossdude! Look at all that space where cajun used to be! Also I do wonder if they will cover the tunnel and or put lighting or maybe smoke just to make it look better. Any thoughts? Also 48" and no max height yay! It also looks like there is extra fee for hurricane harbor? Oh boy i'm not sure if that's a good decision. It will get more people to buy season passes though!

[CoastsToCoasters]

Umm... thats awkwardly drawn very big but I get it haha & there is the definite proof about Hurricane Harbor now.

Onto construction: That lift is huge too.

I've never really bothered to look into this yet at any park I've visited that offers this; am I correct in assuming that you have no say as to what row you ride in?
