There is another one being built according to this website:

"Higher, faster and with more ride elements" is what Quin Checketts promises for the Japanese version.

How many Scream'n Serpant boxes did you (or whoever built it) have to use, because i have on and it doesnt look anything like that! That was really cool and complicated looking!

He has like 4 or 5. I don't know. Its a really nice model. It has exelent transitions. Its a great ride up to the second lift.

I don't see a 4-D going in any time soon. They are just that kind of ride. X was awesome though. Complete insanity. Too bad CP can't come out with a ride that is complete insanity like X or Viper. IMO MF is too big and too smooth to be complete insanity.

MF is complete insanity. Ride it a 30th time and maybe you'll understand.

Smoking Marijuana isn't a bad thing or even a good one, like everything else, its what you make of it.

What do you mean insanity? Like cool awesome insanity?

Or it really insane bad?

The more rides I got the less insanity there was.

What the heck! How can you say its less intense?

Everybody's different. In some cases, the more rides a person gets on a coaste like MF, the less intense the ride becomes. And in other cases, it gets better with more rides.

If anyone is going to CP this weekend, when you're riding mf, look to the left and down on the first camel back hill. I saw something interesting tonight(friday 16th). There was a good sized sign that said coaster on it. it also looked like there was a smaller word above coaster but i couldn't read it, along with other stuff laying around the sign, like crates and what looked like smaller support poles. i wish i could have stopped millie on the hill to get a good look. It only gives you a couple good seconds. If i were to guess i would say a spinning mouse is coming for the 2006 season along with a flat.

Was this sign in the middle of trees? Or was it by paths?

The stuff i saw is i believe in the boneyard area(?). You can't see it off of a walking path, if thats what you mean. i think the only way you can see it is to ride millennium force. It is pretty easy to see if you are looking for it.

Very neat findings. Well anyone who rides take a look and tell us what you see.

I was there earlier today and saw the same thing... there is quite a bit there too see in a very short ammount of time. You can see some of the stuff as you comeback too. I did a methodical search around millennium island and couldn't find any other good view of the stuff. I got a couple glances at some stuff from the CP&LE RR and a little from Paddlewheel excursions. I will be posting a few pics on my website later on. Unfortunatly the best view was from MF and there is no way I would try taking pics on that ride.

On a side note, I was very happy to see a ride attendant on Magnum keeping the loading area under control. There was about a half hour wait, but since they were only letting in a few people at a time, there was about 4-6 people per line as opposed to the 10-15 I remember in the past. I was much more organized.

So basicly what you are saying is you saw what looked like crates filled with supports in the bone yard as well as a sign that said 'coaster'?

Yeah, I don't think they could make it more direct. What did you get pics of exactly?

I saw the crates to on friday night. It might just be some stuff left over from old coasters, but it is a cool find indeed.

^Old coasters. WildCat (original) and Jumbo Jet were CP's last old coasters. Why would there be things back there from the 70's?

And for these findings, I don't believe until I see it.

Ok... new pics uploaded. I know some of this stuff has been seen before, but I have been a little slow to get some of these shots myself. I'm pretty sure I got some shots by Mine ride that havn't been posted yet.

Just a Warning: No real good shots of MF Island. I did the best I could.

Interesting. Very interesting. I don't see green dots meaning a whole lot though. Espically next to the muesum. The arrows may mean something but I just can't see CP getting anything big to humongous. WoF is getting Patriot and i'm sure thats gonna take a chunk of change to build meaning less for the other parks. IE CP.

Well... I thought it was interesting to see all that PVC pipe. The tire tracks nearby make me think the PVC was recently put there. Getting ready to do something, but what...

Wow PVC pipe. To me it just seems like its for upgrades to the bathrooms and water systems. They did the same thing last year in frontier town with other bathrooms, and well the stuff on MF Island looks like junk or maybe even prop boxs for storage for haunted house stuff. I for one still belive it will be upgrade for the park in 2006 with something small noting major as in rides if any new rides come in. After all they are sinking a lot of money into The marina and castawaybay. When the upgrade lighthouse point, there was no new ride. So upgrades to the park and to accomodations are my vote whats new for 2006


Shoot the rapids, tame and dry. Thunder Canyon, wet and laughter. Snake River Falls, soaked and smiling. White Water Landing and the old shoot the rapids, Fun and missed.
