Anyone remember if Rip Roaring Rapids has been operational this year?

I just went to the park today and it was running. Everything was a walk on including night hawk and Intimidator but White water Rapids had a 30 min wait.

Granted I haven't ridden in years, but what kind of love are y'all wanting the park to show? It's a rapids ride.

I think more interactive splash zones couldn't hurt. Currently, there's only one real spot where half of the raft will get wet. Everything else is pretty blah.

Some form of an observation area outside of the line. I feel like the rapids ride is hidden in a corner of the park were people forget about it

I doubt it is forgotten about, on hot days, it normally was a good length line.

Most park's rapids are like that, SFOG, KD...It's just so "hidden" in our park cause it's the only ride with tree coverage in our park! :lol:

It collapsed I think in 2002 over the winter from heavy snowfall.
