Coaster Kid Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 So I went to DollyWood and Splash Country over the Weekend. It was a nice 6 hour drive down to Tennesse no traffic it was really good. As we came closer to our hotel I noticed that Pigen Forge is alot like Las Vegas there is things to do everywhere. So on Friday we went to DollyWood. I rode all of the rides but I have to say MysteryMine was awsome and Tennesse Tornado was very fast with its 110 ft loop but it was a very short ride. ThunderHead was a great wood coaster and deserved the awards it has. I was first train of the day in the back seat. I loved all 3 including Blazing Fury was fun but the little kid ones I rode just for credit. We did see alot of things there. On saturday we went to Splash Country it was very fun and way better the BommerRang Bay. I loved every slide even the wave pool with went off every 5 minutes unlike KI's every 30 minute it seems. All of the slides were fun. So aster all the fun on both days we went to small parks and did other rides like a SkyFlyer and a bungee jump plus some GoKarting at good old Nascar SpeedWay which had a Caoster that I rode. It was really fun and a very good ride back to Ohio where our good old KI is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CincyMan98 Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I went to Pigeon Forge in the spring and it was perfect weather to go to Dollywood but I didn't get to go. It sounds so fun! And it does remind me of Las Vegas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jasper Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Yea it does anyone needs to ride MysteryMine with its vertical lifts and 3 Vertical drops and on of those I belive in 100ft. I was in Dollywood Friday, what a coincidence. Glad to see you had a good time. One thing I don't agree with is, Mystery Mine only has two vertical drops. The one coming off the brake run after the first hill, and then of course the one coming off the second vertical lift. I don't really know where you think the other one is, unless you are counting the one coming out of the station as one. Also one more thing, where is Thunderhead in this TR. You never even mentioned it, IMO one of the greatest coasters out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Touchdown Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Am I not correct in thinking that there is a 180 degree turn in the first half of Mystery Mine that is 90 degrees up and 90 degrees down? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasper Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Touchdown, I stand corrected. I completely forgot about that turn directly after the first vertical drop. I do not know how I could overlook that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Kid Posted August 11, 2009 Author Share Posted August 11, 2009 I think I might have seen you Friday I was with my grandparents It would have been easy to spot me around 2:15 I think I got stuck in the middle on the last zipline.

Dbfan Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Dollywood is indeed, a great park. Pigeon Ford is well....interesting. Reminds me a little bit of Orlando, with all the corny suovenier shops and random tourist stops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
