yay for large trees. :)

I'm glad to see they made the queue rails further apart on the old WWL queue area. Everything seems to be taking shape nicely!!

I'm sorry to see that it seems one will not be able to get a very good view of the ride from the train.

What an awsome update. It answered soooo many questions.:)

It really surprises me they're using wood on the perimeter fence. All the other fences are that black wire fence like surrounding TTD. I like that fence too. But, I'm guessing to prevent people from being hit by objects either on Maverick or the train, the wood fence is required. It will make the train basically outside the park at that point though. Weird.

Wow the things you miss while in detention! ;)

Does anyone know if they have put the roof over the Tunnel yet?

It looks like the exit of the tunnel finally has roofing on it. Check out the PondCam.

Awesome update. Everything is really coming together now. It looks to me like they tore out the old WWL queue and installed a new one. Without removing the trees I might add.

Every time CP posts photos I just get more and more excited. The ride is coming together better than I could have ever imagined.

One word: shade.

Very smart move on CP's behalf to utilize the pre-exisiting queue area, building the other half in WWL's station.

The tunnel roof can be seen even better in this picture when the sun was reflecting off of it.

Nice capture. That's the best shot I've seen of the tunnel yet.

Is it May yet? Oh please please please please please . . .

I have to say that they made a lot of progress in just a week from the last update. Although I'm sort of upset that the canyon shown on the animations around the turn after the first airtime hill isn't showing up. Did they change their minds or is it still March and they still have time?

One thing about this month, Walt or Jeff should just rename this topic to March construction update or something because the pictures this month are much better then February. They really are making a lot of progress. Although Jason, I don't feel like they touched that part of the queue. It looks the same to me. I'm axious to see what the concrete inside the WWL House looks like when they install the queue rails in there. The way they're going, testing will be going on full-curcuit. I know they are testing now, but wait until, later April.

The queue rails have most definitely been altered...

Leave it to DBCP to have a photo.

Doug, do you have photos of the interiors of all the CP bathrooms, both men and womens, as well? Just wondering. ;)

Maverick's entrance sign is going to look sexy! Cant wait to see it!

Wow, how many times am I going to use "sexy" as a means of decription?:)

I was wondering that too Adam...
