Geauga Lake - Sunday July 15th - Great Day

This will be more of a informational review than a trip report, so here we go:

I was at the park from 12:30pm to 2:45pm.

The park was fairly crouded but everyone seemed to be spread out pretty well.

When I arrived, the parking lot was up to C-1 and A-2. When I left it was up to D-1 and A-5.

In order I rode the following:

Head Spin - Mostly walk on, 1 train wait for front and back. Crew Ok.

Big Dipper - Mostly walk on, 1 train wait for front and back. Running 2 trains. Crew Good.

Time Warp - Walk on or 1 cycle wait depending on when you walked up. Ride was half full. Crew Good. Let me on, even though I walked up after gate was closed.

Thunderhawk - Mostly 2 train wait, 4 train wait for front and back. Running 2 Trains. Crew Good. As a single rider I had a front seat walk on.

Dominator - Mostly 1 to 2 train wait, 2 to 3 train wait for front. Running 2 trains. Crew Very Good.

Texas Twister - Walk on or 1 cycle wait depending on when you walked up. Ride was half full. Crew Ok. The harnesses released 3 times before finaly getting underway. After the 3rd release, about 15 people walked off the ride.

Double Loop - Mostly walk on, 1 train wait for front and back. Running 2 trains. Crew Slow. My train sat stacked for about a minute while they very slowly checking harnesses.

Villian - 10 minute wait to get to the station. Then it was 2 train wait for most rows, with 4 train waits for front and back. Running 2 trains. Crew Good.

There were a few rides with somewhat long lines including, Shipwreck Falls, Americana, Grizley Run, Pepsi Plunge, and Beaver Land Mine Ride.

The line for 3 Point Shoot Out was the shortest I've ever seen it, with only one person waiting while one persone was playing. By the same token, this was the first time I saw people playing Corn Hole. By the beeded necklaces they were wearing, they played at least 3 times.

The weather today was great. A clear sunny sky, warm with a nice breeze.

Overall the park was very clean. I would give it an excelent if it wern't for the area over by Thunder Alley Speedway and Head Spin.

I'm a 2 to 3 time a year visiter, and all in all this was the best day I've spent at Geauga Lake in years.

Nice TR. I really think GL is a nice park also. Crowds really seem much better this year. There have been lines for the rides for many days in July so far.
