Everybody talking about Rip Roaring Rapids but what about this awesome ride. I miss it. Im glad we got Intimidator but this was still a fun ride when it was hot. Would be a nice addition where Dinos Alive is obviously it would not be as big

I’m 26 so I’ll always remember it as Wild Thornberry’s. I still get to do Dare Devil Falls a ton every season but it does stink to see so many log flumes/water rides disappearing, but still have flumes going at all the other parks in the region (SFoG, Dolly, BGW, KD) and Intimidator was a much needed investment.

Kinda hard to be in the loop when you haven’t been to the park in over 2 years at that time.

I didn’t know the writing was on the wall for Log Flume.

Are you saying that if you haven't been to the park in two years (or maybe even haven't worked in the park 13 years), you may not know the ins and outs of operations and ride additions? Hmmm, intriguing.

If I had only known about this site when that post was made (Oct 14, 2008, I joined about a year later), I would have made sure to ride it on my visit about a week later to say goodbye. I did ride it in September when I visited, so I guess I have that.
