Captain Nemo Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Didn't name the first hill in the Diamondback Sierra "Mt. Helbig" for nothin'! I don't see a Mt. Tony or Mt. Tyler anywhere in sight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

74Gibson Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 That picture cracked me up! Anyone know what the white crane is doing by the Crypt? It keeps turning back and forth but not really doing anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastersRZ Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Well, there are track and supports that will be placed right by the cave entrance to the Crypt. It could be moving some of these pieces off of flatbed trucks and/or installing some of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
74Gibson Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 ^ That would make sense but I've seen no trucks, supports tracks etc... Just a crane going back and forth repeatedly. I wondered if they were checking its turn radius since its in such a tight spot. I'm just excited that they might be starting work on the final helix!!!!!

CoastersRZ Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Just because you haven`t seen any from the webcam does not mean that there haven`t been any trucks or pieces being moved around by the crane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
74Gibson Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Your right. I just saw one. And I wasn't saying that they weren't there, just that I hadn't seen them and the crane was repeatedly going back and forth without lowering it's hook (insert proper name).

RailRider Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 A few interesting observations from today. Currently there is a cement truck parked close to Wings Dinner and the station entrance, also looks like the 3rd hill has grown a little larger today and I have noticed quite a few workers working in and around the splash down pond.

Kawana Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I figure this applies, even if it is the CP blog... kinda funny http://www.cedarpoint.com/public/fun/blog/index.cfm Look at Don rocking that DB shirt. In that last photo, it looks like Don is a guy you wouldn't want to run into in a dark alley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RailRider Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 When the Boogeyman goes to sleep every night he checks his closet for Don Helbig. Don Helbig counted to infinity - twice. If paper beats rock, rock beats scissors, and scissors beats paper, what beats all 3 at the same time? Answer: Don Helbig. Don Helbig knows where Carmen Sandiego is. TB I think your right Helbig is better than Chuck Norris, move over Chuck... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
