Has an Adventureland height balloon test happened?

I thought it might have been today, but I couldn't make it over to the park.

 

[Rteetz]

If it did happen no one reported about it here or on Twitter from what I have seen.

Sounds like you believe it is today or some day soon? Interesting.

In place of treehouse?

 

[NiarrNDisney]

Well there were rumblings of a possible expansion for Adventureland and or Frontierland though I though it was just fan boy fodder

Yes, it is especially interesting that it may have happened without having captured on Twitter.

If it did, how could you tell? Every time I've been, there have been tons of balloons flying through the air of Adventureland.

 

[lentesta]

It may have run after hours. Or not yet. Keep a weather eye on the horizon, please.

 

[SosoDude]

Soooo... any idea what it could be for?

 

[SteamboatJoe]

Well, this is interesting. I'd love for this to mean something big like Indiana Jones but I'm not going to get excited yet.

The tree house is the only existing attraction over there I could see them messing with. Is there any undeveloped land in that vicinity that wouldn't require significant work be done on the railroad and/or Caribbean Way?

Obviously a life-size Te Fiti backdrop for the Moana M&G.

Nice. Is that your own work?

Where is the expansion pad in Adventureland?

 

[ToTBellHop]

Too similar to BTM and Everest.

It was meant to be a tropical volcano with a coaster that switched from standard to flying mid-track. It would've been unlike anything else.

But, alas...

Between JC and Pirates.

Although it would need to be accessed by a corridor that would even rival INDY at DL

Better make it worth our while!

I know there is path going back stage there but it doesn't seem like there is a ton of land unless you are talking about the pad on the other side of the railroad tracks and Caribbean Way or stacking something on top of PotC.

Is it on the other side of the train tracks? Just trying to judge how much space they have to work with, unless they replace something that's already there.
