Silver Dollar City has announced Mystic River Falls for 2020!!!!

Looks very cool, but I think the renderings exaggerate the drop angle. Looks like 70 degree drop in that picture.

Looks like an awesome attraction but I agree that the drop looks ridiculously steep in that image, especially for what's being called a family ride. I also love the records they come up with for these new rides - this time "tallest drop on a raft ride in the western hemisphere". This beats out the current record holder by 9 feet (Infinity Falls at SeaWorld Orlando, which just opened in October of last year).

Yeah they did say what was it an 8 story drop? The angle looks awesome in the pic but there is no way its that steep lol Did anyone see who is the manufacture of MRF? I wonder if this is another Intamin like Infinity Falls.

This picture on the park's website gives a much better idea of what the drop will actually look like.

That really gives me the White Water Landing vibes at CP or I can never remember the name of RFYLCB when it was first opened and before Paramount ruined it for me. lol

Great backstory, but I love how they keep saying that “record” lol. As far as that picture, it looks like Snake River Falls (or Congo Falls) but as a rapids ride and with an elevator lift... or is there more to the ride’s layout that we are not seeing?

[Oldiesmann]

There's more than what can be seen in that picture. The entire ride is supposed to last about 5 1/2 minutes and there's a "mine shaft" in there somewhere as well.

I also had to laugh that they are adding a ride with Mystic in the name in their new area... Rivertown.
