Just to clarify— when you say they moved things around, are you referring to things around the plaza or near the cable spool?

Cable spool, just looked like they got everything organized and a bit more consolidated over there
I'm not sure where you heard that because they definitely didn't change the cable speed
Not specifically for that accasion but it 10000% is slower getting to the top by a few seconds than 2010-12ish era. Just another method to try and save those wheels id assume. Same for Alpengeist slowing to a hault now at the top
305 has 2 lift speeds that maintenance adjust depending on conditions. "Dry" and "wet".
Does anyone have some inside information on if they’ve been commissioning at night or not? I know during the fury crack they did commissioning at night.
I think they might mean testing.
Bit more of the big wooden posts out today but that seems about it. Spool hasn’t moved but there is a cable hanging down above where the spool will go which I didn’t notice before, so we may be very close
I'm making the assumption that the poles will hold up nets to prevent people from throwing stones, correct?
Likely a rope or fence around the center, though the only rocks there seem to be so big if someone is picking those up they’re Hercules.
Im thinking it’s like old abandoned temple that’s still covered by some overgrowth? I think mixed in with some plants it could look good but idk.
Is this the first time we’ve seen the wait time sign installed, or is it just obstructed in other photos?
It’s been there the whole time. I actually thought it was removed in the pictures from a day ago, but no, that and the safety sign are in the same place. What really bothers me (other than the metal nascar fencing) is that the safety sign is now partially obstructed by the new wooden fencing. You’d think they move it slightly.
Also love the digital wait time sign at Rapterra and wished that was installed here too. Practically speaking, it doesn’t make THAT much sense here given the ridership, but at least TT deserves a digital sign and single fast pass purchase system.
Digital Pantherian screen: Current wait time: Approximately 245 days
Why do we only see new construction pics on the following day? Are they only doing 99% of the work through the night? Why?
Not sure whose responsibility it is, whether maintenance, landscape, construction, but whoever it is is probably working mornings from sun up to park opening at 11. Then whoever it is is probably doing daily operational tasks during park opening.
I know KD used to have a landscaping team but who knows now after all the layoffs and responsibility shifts.
