July 6, 200620 yr Whew, just got home from the park. If I go by myself, I like to go when it first opens, and then usually by about 1 or 2 pm, I'm ready to head home. I've usually ridden everything by then and ate lunch. The park looked really nice today. Thought it would be sort of a "light" day...not at all! By the time I left, there were what I would estimate over an hour or more wait for every ride. Even The Racer had a line into the midway. When I left the parking lot @ 1 pm, it looked nearly completely full. Overall great day!
July 6, 200620 yr I'm sure the reason the park was busy today. Spirit Song started today. I would except the park to be busy the next few days, while Spirit Song is going on.
July 6, 200620 yr That is what i heard. When i was up there on the 3rd my uncle was telling me about it and how he wanted to be there but he said it would most likely be packed to the brim.
July 6, 200620 yr Today was Spirit Song, and also the day the Make A Wish Foundation was in the park. Tomb Raiders line was about 3 hours long and I think all the queue's at beast were full.
July 6, 200620 yr Author Luckily I got on TR early as I waited about 15 minutes. Beast and Vortex were walk-ons. Not for long, I'm sure. I'm glad to see the park that busy, though.
July 7, 200620 yr Yes it was busy, at 12:00pm it was 18,000+. That was ok, but by 3pm 31,000. Luckuly I was just an open. The day was nice and cool, with a light brizze. Some of you should have seen it out in by front gate, by 12pm we couldn't walk outside. There were lines from ticket scanners to the medal deteckeders. The overflow gates were being used. Nice trip report PKIfan73
July 7, 200620 yr Yeah the crowds were bad but I am not sure why because I think only like 5-10 thousand go to Timberwolf for Spirit Song that puts us down to 25 thousand but that is really a lot of people to be in the park for a typicall Thursday
July 7, 200620 yr Author Wow, it wasn't my imagination, then. I had people hawking me for my parking spot when I left in Gold Pass Parking....lol
July 8, 200620 yr Wow, it wasn't my imagination, then. I had people hawking me for my parking spot when I left in Gold Pass Parking....lol Your lucky that it didn't get rough in the parking lot . When I was leaving the main north lot was full, there were traffic cones doubled up telling people to head over to south lot.
