You need to turn off some security features.

That will fix it.

O got it.

I have to say thank you for the winter scenes. Every since I was a youngster I wanted to see CP during the winter. I have never been there during the winter and this is the next best thing. I'm hoping by next winter I will have my private pilots license and you gussed it. A winter trip over the Point is first on my list.

Awsome pictures guys. That is helping my CP withdrawl. I can't wait till the other sections of the park. Keep up the good work. Oh, by the way. That wallpaper is awsome!

It really is a great wallpaper, i put that picture as my wallpaper before I knew that it was put up with the other ones with the PointBuzz logo and it just wasn't as clear and crisp as the one from this site, nicely done.

Their is a new wallpaper on the Cedar Point web page. Just look under online fun then wallpaper. It is showing off Blue Streak in the snow.

Again the pictures are great. They really strip down Matterhorn and Monster right down to the bones. I wonder why some of the Dragster trains were covered with a tarp and some weren't.

First I want to complement you on the fantastic pictures you took.
Second Im curious to know why what appears to be a tanker truck is
doing parked besides the Dragster Hydraulic building.
Im guessing it has something to do with the Hydraulic oil but I am sure I wrong(not the first time either).
thanks in advance :)
Also looking forward to the next installment --makes me miss the Point even more:( *** Edited 2/24/2005 10:22:48 AM UTC by causewaycruiser***

I wondered that too. There's a pump between the hoses that go to the truck and inside, so I assume they're pumping the oil out. That wouldn't be a very clean path I would think to pump it in.

I'm curious as to why they removed the name and logo from the Happy Friar building. Are they changing it to something else, or do they remove the signs every year for some reason?

It has been subtle, but a lot of signs have been painted or replaced in the last year or two. The Dodgem sign is a replacement, but the shop signs on the trail across from Red Garter look painted. Ditto for several on the main midway.

I added one more shot to the Dragster midway gallery (looking down the launch from the platform).

Sweet Jeff! I like that picture!

Also, if you look at the webcams, all of the snow that was in your pictures, is gone.

^That's what happens to snow over a period of a few weeks.

I didn't notice a shot of the Witches Wheel in the gallery yet (not that it's that exciting to look at) :) but when I had gone though the park in the winter one year, I noticed it was stored raised up at a 45 degree angle (cars removed of course). I'm curious as to why.

Yea,

I was wondering about witches wheel as well.

For some reason I can't think of what the name of this ride is, I can't picture it in my mind. http://www.pointbuzz.com/Gallery.aspx?i=2137
