This thing maxes out at about 60'. It is a long way from a mountain.

Doesn't mean its not considered a Mountain.

Even so, I cant wait to ride it next to Space Hill, Big Thunder Butte Railroad, and Spash Knoll

And who knew that Mt. Everest is the tallest mountain in Florida.

"Mountain" is a relative term. People in Colorado would laugh at what the people here in New Jersey consider to be a mountain in our state.

It is a "Dawrf" Mountain.

The complete structure isn't even built yet. Who knows what they will out in there? This is BTMR full specs. And we're talking about the tip of the spire here. They could surely do something similar to meet your specific requirements for the mountain label.

Is the above info still correct on the opening timeframe? We're heading back in April 2014 and I'm a little nervousness that it'll be pushed back...

In the Staggs presentation the other morning he said Spring 2014 and we have always been hearing 1st quarter 2014 from Lee, so it looks good for April 2014 barring any major problems.

If you look at the third picture, it looks as if Ariel's "cliffside" will blend in nicely with the slope of the 7D hill.

I am sooooo hoping for at least soft openings by early January 2014...

If not it will be years before I get to ride it.

Saw on another site that they have installed more track to the coaster finally. It looked like some pretty significant pieces were added.
