Vertical Construction Has Begun!

Dangler said the bottom 20 feet of the towers would be concrete, so it might be the forms going in.

I was thinking the same thing. Wasn't sure if it was one of the towers though.

It looks like one is complete and the other is being formed now.

Do you have a saved webcam picture from earlier Adam? I just came home and it's dark now :( . By the way it looks as if the construction workers are working late tonight because the lights are on at the construction site.

Sorry I don't. You'll have to wait till the time lapse is up for this week. But the only thing they did today was bottom out the first hill and start the concrete forms for the next tower. And I bet there'll be pictures of the hill on facebook soon enough.

Yeah. Where did all the cars go? And WOAH. All that Snow? Mind Blown. :)

Here a webcam shot from today! http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=381374431955668&set=a.369208...=1&theater

^ Thank you buddy. Looking at today's webcam, it looks like they are working in the snow, but I cannot tell for sure. Also have they begun tearing down the front entrance? Maybe it's the new pillar they are putting up as part of the new flyover.

They're definitely working today since the snow isnt that bad. And they haven't taken down the front yet. They have one of the concrete pillars done and have the forms for the second tower up.

That's what I saw! Thank you Adam ;)

Taken today and they are working today... They have done a lot! http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=381757171917394&set=a.369208...=1&theater

Good God, how many facebook pages do we need to cover this?

Does anyone know exactly how tall the camelback is? If I had to guess I would say close to 100 feet tall but I don't actually know.

I do. The answer to that is 105 feet. So you were close. :) By the way does anyone know if they finished that camel back today? I had to work my other job today.

Yea they finished it. Just check cprundowns page when you get home as they tend to follow the webcam action.

Alright thanks, I wanted to get a sense as to how tall the ride will look when it goes over the front gate.
