I have heard 4 minutes. I'd check the thread called "EE Update Feature" And it is 2 Different stations, travel time in between them is probally not much though.

EDIT: I'll spare you the trouble...

4 minute cycle (roughly), 3 minute ride (roughly). Again, that's from cast trainers -- take it with a grain of salt. Videos seem to point to that length as well.

WOW, 4 minutes, are you serious. Space mountain is like what 2 min and 30 secs or so, I thought Everest was going to be much shorter.

From the videos I'd say the actual ride time is 3 minutes. Video #1 probably omits about 15 seconds from when the train starts moving out of loading.

I think one thing not captured on this video is the extreme low frequencies emitted by the Yeti inside the cave. Video cameras can't capture frequencies that low, and I bet when you're in that cave you can practically feel the growl rattling you and the train. Listen to it again and you can kinda get the feeling this would be much more intense in person.

I Hope so, but did anyone remember the rumor that the yeti was supposedly going to be hundreds of feet away from you? In the vid, it doesnt look that way.

EDIT
I also thought they said that the yeti was so big that it was going to be in its own seperate building away from the mountain. From the vid, it doesnt look but like 3 to 4 feet above the riders.

IMO it's very hard to tell exactly what is happening (in the yeti scene in the vids) and hard to tell the relation of how close he is and how large he is. He dosen't look that big in the vid but is said to be the biggest ever created.

He maybe. Looking at the video it is impossible to tell how big or far away the yeti is. The rumor was that when you entered the room with the Yeti he would by hundreds of feet away and you would then get much closer to him. Looking at the video this appears to be accurate. Also the Yeti was not rumored to be in a seperate building away from the mountain, but rather a seperate structure within the mountain. This is to prevent the extreme forces the yetis movement creates from affecting the mountain itself.

Maybe you're thinking of the fact that the support system for the Yeti is its own structure. Several times, we've heard Joe Rohde and others mention that the mountain is made up of three intertwining (but never touching) structual elements: The mountain framework, the coaster track framework, and the Yeti base framework.

The key is does it feel like four minutes? I swear Space Mountain seems longer, but maybe that's just cause we are so busy hooping and hollaring we don't realize it's only 2 minutes. If it's 4 minutes this could be either an awesome ride, or too long of a drag. I vote for the awesome ride.

Oh ok, that clears up some stuff.
