Surprisingly, I don't think it has been published, which is odd considering they have published costs for all the other new rides of late.
Usually the cost is used as a Wow! factor.
I wouldn't wager a guess. I have no idea how such rides compare to other dark ride or other coasters. One thing is for certain, it would have high costs to keep maintained.

I used silver text to hide this. Hope it make it harder to see. Just highlight it to read.
Also, I can't help but think the whole "Yeti Lift" thing has been resolved, if track is being placed.
Any word on that happening?

OK, here's the deal with lift hills.
When I saw the model, I saw only one. At the time I didn't ask about it.
I e-mailed my Everest source earlier and asked about multiple lifts.
His response: "Depends on how you define lift hill".
That's all I could get, for now.
If anyone knows more, feel free to share. Don't just imply that you know something....

early next week.
lol.. no idea, but i sure as hell hope the 2006 projection date is simply a 'safe date' so that we dont have another Test Track incident, and that in reality we may see a early opening.
:: prays to see EE open early 2006/late 2005!?!::
ahh i cant stand the wait...! 2006 is oh-so-far away.. i dont know how im gonna make it.. -at least if they open the bridge and village area soon, that will help calm the anticipation just a bit..... or possibly even intensify it..!?

If I were you, I'd not torment yourself with the possibility of an early opening. 2006 is the posted date. Let's wait until it's closer to see. Theming inside areas could take forever... as could actual ride elements, if they are as crazy as people are saying.

Sounds about right to me, noting that most events and openings at Animal Kingdom are on Earth Day.

I hope it's good with a good drop or something. Rock'n'rollercoaster is good but i mean after the shoot off, that's it. Is this "mountain" going to be bigger than splash mountain or what? I hope it's going to be good.

The tallest drop will be 80ft. tall, combine that with going backwards for part of the ride, and you've got a rather thrilling ride.
