Silver Dollar City - Miner's Mountain Express Construction

 

There has been an explosion of vertical construction since our last visit.
Here you can see the second lift hill on the left and a few of the helices in the helix garden

It is crazy how close the track is to the pathway to Wildfire

There is going to be some crazy air pops and laterals on this ride

They are continuing to add large rocks to the area

Are you able to follow the track layout in this photo?  It sure does weave in and out of itself a lot

One more look at this air time hill

A better straight-on view of the second lift hill

The viewing plaza next to the mast head tower

A hill peeking over American Plunge

The second lift hill

The track leading into the station fly-through has been installed

They are getting ready to pave the pathway under the mast head

They have installed supports for what will be the lead up into the station fly-through

Looking past PowderKeg's launch area

Supports for the curved drop after the second lift hill and some ground-hugging track here in the middle.  The track at the bottom is awaiting installation

Pile of track waiting to be installed

Still haven't installed the track exiting the station fly-through

Frame for the mainteance building

Looking at the helix garden from PowderKeg side of the lot

This is going to be so much fun

One last shot.  We will back again towards the end of October for another update
