    Forbidden Frontier, and Snake River Expedition opened in 2019, they never would have even been built after 2020.  I enjoyed the boat ride, it was much better in 2019 than at any time since then.  Personally, I would have liked it to be similar to the Jungle Cruise, place animatronics around the shore, have the boat captain make bad jokes throughout the experience.

    Snake River Expedition opened to guests in 2021.

    Forbidden Frontier opened in 2019 (Remained Closed in 2020)

    I've seen this happen too many times to count

    Seen what? 

    Your photo shows when the train valleyed between the loop and cobra roll, so a crane was utilized to bring the train back to Lift 2. This is not common at all and actually might have been the only time the ride had this scenario occur.

  3. I've seen the price for Xtreme Skyflyer start at $5.00 per person early in the morning then it would likely rise to $10.00 per person mid-day. Sometimes it would hit $15.00 per person on weekends.... and rarely hit $20.00 per person only on holiday crowd days (4th of July). 

    Maybe it's different now?

    It did look like when the ride is only 1 sided it operates with 4 team members, and when it was 2 sided it required 7 team members. + breaks you would have 8 or 9 team members. 

    + the games team member selling the tickets.

    Remember when they used to sell the videos by Kamans?

    @BoddaH1994 would know better than me, but I’m pretty sure only one former Surf Cincinnati slide got used and that was circa 2006 for their weird and definitely questionable “toboggan” attraction that Boddah, @Dane, and I wrecked on. I don’t think they ever brought that back. The “tubing” they had in later years was just a giant dirt pile in the parking lot and the slides sitting in pieces out there were from… Columbus’ old zoo waterpark thing?

    I was looking at wikipedia's list of former Kings Island attractions to see what the oldest ride to ever operate at the park was (it was the original Dodgem btw), and I found this in the list of former areas. I can't imagine it's true since the festhouse and viking fury are still there but still.

    Oktoberfest still exists, just a little smaller. :rolleyes::)
