Expedition Everest effects status watch

Also of note, the work lights being on under the track right as you enter the final tunnel.

This what you’re referring to?

Here's one video of the completely strobe-less, potentially yeti-less tunnel. Also of note, the work lights being on under the track right as you enter the final tunnel.

Should the fact the growl is gone from the room be considered in guessing what's up?

Yes. They don't mean anything but they should be off during the day.

He's still there in that video. You can see his hand pass above you.

Unfortunately, it is more likely Dinoland will be replaced before the yeti is ever right, again.

You mean Dinorama.

This is just for an outlet for an iRoomba to pick up the daily hair ties.

New strobe lights need permits. Who wouldve guessed

 

[Brad Bishop]

They're never going to fix the Yeti. How do you put that expense down on a spreadsheet and justify it? Even at some point in the future where they actually have to replace the track (a decade or two away - maybe more; Look at Space Mountain - it's more). If they had to pull apart the entire side of the mountain to replace the track, they're still not going to fix the Yeti. It doesn't pay anything more back being active than it does having a strobe on it. It's never going to happen.

Not really. Permits for minor work are commonplace for almost every attraction.

Now I know why this thread has been pinned for 10 years. What about Katiebug and the F&W shenanigans? There's your top 3.

Electrical work for the new screen to replace the yeti...lol

I just consider myself lucky to have ridden it in April 2006 after it opened. Steam effects, moving yeti... You felt like the yeti’s hand was actually going to grab you, and you could almost reach out and touch it. It was glorious. I yearn for guests to experience a moving yeti again one day. Strobe lights can’t come close to simulating the thrill.

And not seeing the tracks switch and then falling through the fog and out of the mountain... that was an even bigger loss than the moving yeti imho.
