Frontier Lift

They put in Iron Dragon and they closed it? Why didn't they just move the station? Or move Iron Dragon's station?

Also, Iron Dragon was built in 87. Why did they close the ride in 85?

I don't know, maybe planning. I can't see any other reason then maybe low ridership, which I don't know was the case.

Because it duplicated a ride already in the park? Maybe it was a maintenance nightmare? Maybe it had low ridership?

Idk. I would have liked to ride it. To bad I was born in the 90s. :(

There's a small snippet of Frontier Lift in this video I made last year...about 5:05 in.

The main reason I've heard as to why they closed it was that there was no way onto the island back then so rescuing people if they got stuck would be a hassle.

I've heard concerns over how to handle a potential ride evacuation may have been a factor.

Swamp jump.
