I know this is the standard time to take KRR down, but I can't help but wonder if they'll do small refurbishes on the other rides at AK following Kali reopening to get them working for when Bugs Life and DINOSAUR are closed.

I always wonder....is it a refurb for real, or is it closed because of low ridership and cash needed to staff and operate?
Is the refurb really not as long, they just keep it closed longer?

That's some conspiratorial thinking, right there. It's the annual winter refurb. Who wants to ride a rapids ride during the height of winter? I rode it in December once and got completely soaked. I was miserable. I couldn't get back to my room quick enough for a hot shower and change of clothes.

It closed today, BTW.
