Is it safe to say the steam is usually working? It's probably my favorite effect. It sets the scene so well.

Effects update:
BOTH waterfalls working
Steam working
No Bird
Yet was in a new pose. The lighting has changed. I didn't see the strobe light as much because there was just a regular light lighting up the area. You could see the entire area that he was hanging on and the track that is up above his head. This is the most well lit I have ever seen the yeti.

YES! Finally, my only wish came true. How long, who knows, but at least they have tried lighting up the show scene more.

Hmmmm...and now it's back. Must have been a snafu when his page switched to the new format. Wonder if I'll ever get an answer...

Of course, it could turn out that he doesn't actually run his Facebook page.

Rough day at Everest
No steam, no bird on a stick, and Yeti badly lit and in new position - seems like he is half turned from the car...

did we ride the same ride? I saw steam, waterfalls, and the strobe lighting on the yeti was more effective than it has been in a while.

Maybe a bad stretch or hiccup that I hit on the ride!

Yes, its very rare that it isn't working.

That's what I thought but a few weeks ago I was reading complaints about it not working.

Went on Everest with my fiance in March (it was his first ride) and we had to ride it twice because we didn't even see the Yeti on the first ride.

My first time riding Everest was today and the steam at the loading dock was working. I only recall one waterfall at the front of the mountain. I'm not sure if there were both or not as I really only noticed the one because my husband was complaining that it got his glasses wet lol. No bird but there was a bird sound effect. Still just a strobe on the Yeti. We rode it twice and the hubby didn't see him either time! It seems like just a static, low level light on the Yeti would be better so that it would be easier to see him! Forget the fact that they want to simulate movement...if you can't see him in the first place, what good is fake movement?

I cant believe he posted a question asking which people like best, the Yeti or Hopper. Its like they are all just pretending the Yeti isnt broken at this point......
