The light pole in the foreground / parking lot? If not that, then I don't know what you are referring to either.
my guess is that the connecting floating mtn will be somewhere 30-40 ft taller than the first mtnI think you may have won this one.

Anyone know where those balloon shots are from a long time ago? We could compare shots from
the parking lot now with those, line up the trees, and see how the balloons compare to
where construction is now?
Of course, the balloons don't necessarily match what's going on now, but still . .

There was at one point a coaster on the table (a big boy, exposed steel coaster if I recall), so that may have been what they were testing for.

Ok good. I'm really hoping it is.
yeah avatarland would sound lame
"Not the Smurfs" and due to sponsorship considerations, "IHOP World" are also finalists.

The balloons only specify heights. There are also double balloons in there to show different levels on the same line. They aren't always exactly at the level of what is going to be built, they simply give a physical reference to look at so sightlines can be fine tuned. During concept, we could say "Let's build to 180 ft!" and then tie off a balloon at both 100 ft and 180 ft, and go look. If 180 was just too ambitious for the site and looks way too high, we also know what 100 looks like then. Once the plans are in work, we might go float balloons at the final planned elevations again, but not always.
