Silver Dollar City - Project 2027

 

PROJECT 2027

Final update of the 2025 Season.  These large footers are finished and you can see how they butt right up next to the American Plunge trough at the whirlpool scene

Some additional footers just over that hill have been placed

This row of footers appears to be complete now.  They are right next to the PowderKeg first hill

Footers just over the edge there next to WildFire's first drop

Some new orange fencing on the east side of the construction site between the Falls and American Plunge

Looks like they have added some weather-proofing paper to the roofs of the new façade before the final lift on American Plunge.  Also I think that walkway is new leading up to the lift

Hope they put a retaining wall in here if they plan to keep that shed.

More fill gravel has arrived on the eastern part of the construciton site

We still predict that the station will go in this area for the new ride

It appears that they are done with the new rockwork on the backside of the Lumbercamp Falls.

No footers yet in this section

Here is a better look at the completed rockwork on the backside of Lumbercamp Falls

Now over by WildFire.  You can see the weather-proofing paper that has been added to the roofs of the façade.

This appears to be the "entrance" they will use to add / take off logs for the ride.  It is a new addition since our last visit

Trying to get a better look at that addition.

Here you can see how it will connect

One last overview show of this area before we move on

Panning on left we see those footers we showed in the first photo on the right and then the new footers we mentioned being just over the hill in the middle.  They appear to still be curing as they were covered in tarps to protect from the rain we had earlier today

Here are those new footers again.  It appears that additional footers will be going to the left in the near future.

The orange fence is where we showed that line of footers next to PowderKeg's first hill

This line of footers now connects to the large swoop of footers in the trees just beyond WildFire


No footers here yet, but we expect another helix to appear in this clearing.
That wraps up our last update for the 2025 season.  We'll be back in March
