AVATAR land construction progress

[twebber55]

probably the best picture yet
anyone want to measure to see how tall the mountains are right now?

Great pic . . . but they say they were in a helicopter . . . so there must be more, a lot more . . . .

Waiting . . . .

(I know, it's never enough. Thankful for what we have, truly!)

I think a full 3D fly-though in 4k resolution that is updated daily would be enough.

You can also see that they have started putting the concrete on the mesh and are sculpting and painting it. Right above the trees on the left there are the two green vehicles and you can see it goes from brown rock work directly into the wire mesh.

One thing that is nice to see (at least in my opinion) is there seems to be some more interest in this project now. I remember a time when I posted a photo update of the construction and I would get 7 or 8 likes, and always from the same people. Now I post one photo and I am up around 30 likes. I have always said that as the mountains continue to rise above DAK that the intrigue for this expansion will dramatically increase.

What's most exciting about that photo to me is on the right side, what looks to be the beginnings of a mountain even taller than all the rest that are already there.

Awesome photo! That's the angle from the D23 model I was dying to get, but Disney did a great job of obscuring it.

You can really gain an appreciation for the huge difference in gradient between Flight of Passage and the boat ride now.

Also, in the background, I am fairly certain that you can see what will become the possible QS restaurant building. So much is made clear in that one photo.

It appears that way too, but it's actually a pre-existing ?bus shed. The North of the land where the QS will occupy is actually cut off in this photo on the right. Although based on NearMap they hadn't yet gone vertical.

I can safely say I am satisfied with what I see.

Wait for your ride on the River of Dreams....Audio alone will tickle your spine on the "moon river".

Ok, that type of tease is so unfair. Ugh, I can't wait for this to open...

When you say "moon river," I think Chevy Chase.

Ok, thanks for clearing that up for me about the mountain on the right side. Where does the boat ride fit in there?

The entirety of the DaMouse helicopter ride is on Periscope. Sadly,
it's shaky, blurry, and only briefly shows Pandora . . . not sure how they
got that awesome pic, wish there was more . . . but here it is.

.... and gone.

Ah, didn't know that stuff expired. Hm. Well, as I said, it applied to the discussion, but
was ultimately frustrating.

Here's a screenshot from my browser. Imagine this shaking, and see, you're not so sad, anymore.

Your guess is as good as mine.

In the attached image, it looks to me like bottom of the front wall of the boat ride warehouse is what's outlined in red. The height and ceiling of the boat ride is outlined in blue. A nice, high ceiling for lots of show elements (you can tell from that emergency exit doorway). It looks to me like the area outlined in green is the queue for the Soarin' ride (a two story area). Again, just my guess.

Argh, sorry, my internet is being stupid. See if it works now.
