Yeah I know your problem. When I went on to get my bird's-eye view, everything was black and white. They got rid of Delirium and put King Cobra back. What is happening?!?!?

The image is now showing on my end when using Tapatalk. Thanks guys!

I'm on Tapatalk right now and number two wont show up. 1 and 2 work fine. Here's what I see:

Great trip report! I would agree the Gemini stop was an amazing experience. Suprised they included that, and I hope they do something similar next year. The VHS tapes also included the option of Mantis, as Tony Clark stated.

Keep in mind, as they stated, whatever plan you take (souvenir cup or no souvenir cup) you can not use the other plan. So, if you forgot your cup, you can not get free refills from the paper cup system.

^ That would bring in even more people to Haunt, so that would make sense for their business. I think it is a long shot, but it would work.

Thank you so much for everything you did for this site the last 14 years. This site wouldn't be as great without the hard work you (Dane, and everyone else involved) put in over the years. It was a pleasure to talk to you when I met you at Woodstock Gliders during late night rides (I think Coasterstock 2015). Thank you and good luck with your future endeavors!

Here's some zoomed in looks at the station and shed area. From the Mystic Timbers webcam: From the Diamondback webcam: Massive work has been done on the shed area. Images from Kings Island's webcams. (Link: https://www.visitkingsisland.com/online-fun/webcams-7315_34349 )

New photo of Mystic Timbers which includes a new angle of the final turn (which I am low-key looking forward to).

That's what I was thinking. If that's the case it kind of gives an idea of where the queue will be as well.

They just released a station construction photo on Twitter. Can't really tell what that is below the track in front of the station.

The end part of this dream has to with Kings Island. I had a dream I was riding Millennium Force in the front row, and I was bracing so much for the bottom of the drop. As soon as the train got to the bottom the huge drop the track turned into Adventure Express' track. It was going the same speed as Millennium Force would be going but through the quick turns and tunnels of Adventure Express. I was terrified.

Good shot of construction happening around the turn area.

236 days until Haunt starts. Is it too early to start counting?

^ Yes. I really miss them being there. It is a long time away but I've been thinking about 2017 Haunt the day it ended. It's a great way to cap off the season, especially this year where we can ride Mystic Timbers at night. I would like to see the return of Blood Drums, because I really enjoying watching them play and hearing them from a distance.

Really like the amount of photos they've been releasing lately on social media. Good look at some of those 16 airtime moments. Plus a new angle of the lift hill.

They just tweeted another angle of Mystic Timbers: This shot gives you a good look of the terrain Mystic Timbers goes through and how twisty it looks. This is one of the coolest shots they've uploaded.

Another fantastic view of Mystic Timbers: You can really tell from this how its going to interact with White Water Canyon. (Crosses WWC five times as the tweet states)

Not riding The Racer backwards is one regret I have. When I was younger I really didn't like roller coasters that much, so that really prevented me on going on the backwards side of The Racer. I think me not trying roller coasters also really prevented me from not riding a couple rides such as the Son of Beast (which despite all I heard, I regret not being able to ride it).

I'm super excited for this year's Coasterstock. Missing out on last year's was a real big bummer, so I'm glad I'll be able to do it this year. I am happy they included the lights on maze tours, as I've never been one before. No problem! I really enjoy announcing announcements on this thread that includes announcements of announcements for Coasterstock.

This is just an amazing shot of Mystic Timbers. One I've been waiting to see. Was one of the photos on the Mystic Timbers website.

In case anyone is anxious in knowing when these details will be announced, a tweet was sent out saying: "....#Coasterstock information should be available within the next 10-14 days. Still working on a few minor details." Tweet:

Same here. I think I'll be riding WWC more now with Mystic Timbers being there. Plus, we'll get amazing views of it in the queue line as well.

I originally had blue and white, but after a long time of debating with myself I went with green and white. I don't think they are going to go with blue especially with Banshee having a type of blue for supports.

Awesome trip report! Really enjoyed the photos of the Royal Fountain. There is something always special about seeing them lit up at end of the night. Especially on closing day! Thanks for sharing!
