Big Chief's

Ok, might just not be very smart and not see a link on thier site to this. What months is Big Chief's season and what time are they open unitl and until when? In other words, what is the park schedual? I think sometime this summer I should talk a friend into going there for a day, but I wouldn't know when to go becuase I don't know what days they are open. BTW, I'm talking about Big Chief's, Wisconsin Dells, if you havn't figured it out!

I am confused by there opening date also. I am itching to ride Cyclops and Zeus again. According to the Wisconsin Dells site they are already open but I am hearing that they dont open until Memorial day. Try to contact someone at Big Chiefs and find out the real deal.

I remember them having a website, but they never had any info on it, except where it was located. And Same with me, I thought Zeus was one of the best wooden coasters I have ridden. I can't wait untill I get on it again.

Peabody, I have been to that site many times, but they dont state prices or hours of operation. They kind of leave us in the dark.

I e-mailed them last month and they said their main season is Memorial day to Labor day and they are open from 10-12 just about every day. They also said that they are open on weekends in April and May from 10-8 depending on the weather and staffing. I deleted the message so the times are approximate. The e-mail was just approximate times also.

Sorry, man. I misread the original post.
Gezz, you would think a park site would have hours/dates. That's crazy!

Front page of the Chief site says they have 4 coasters. Is there something I'm missing cause they only advertise 3!!!

Zeus
Cyclops
Pegasus
Lil' Titan (Miler 'oval' kiddie steelie)

I wrote them today and got this repsonse

"We are open now on weekends at 10am and close around 8pm. During our main season, Memorial Day to Labor Day, we are open from 9am to 10pm weekdays and from 9 am to midnight on weekends & holidays. "

I don't know if the coasters are open or if they offer POP sessions but I might have to go to the dells this weekend!

I called the hotline and they said they are open from 10am-5pm??? They also said it's $5.50 a ride and 4 rides for $20. That's pretty expensive. They also mentioned there will be no pay one price wristbands.

Go Bucks Go!!!! Sweep the Magic!!!

They are open weekends in mid March and May, . The hours I thought were like 10-5 till June and then 10-10 though Labor Day and back to 10-5 till the end of October and it is going to cost you 5.50 a ride, but they let you go twice around the circuit for the price. I like to go and buy there all day(10-5 or you can buy the all night one during the summer from 3-10) ticket for $32 (this is the one place you cannot find a coupon for in the Dells) and ride the go karts and go on the coasters as much as I want, since the 5.50 a ride adds up fast. They also have 4 rides for $20. The kiddie rides cost 2.50 a ride. Hope that helps! ;)

How far from Chicago is this place?

From Chicago you are looking at between 3 to 4 hours driving depending on how fast you go. It is roughly about 200 miles from Chicago.

Thanks for the info!

Wow. I got more of a responce than I thought I would. Thanks guys! I'll have to find time to get there ASAP.

How are the coasters there? I don't know anyone who has been there, and I've never heard any discussion about them. Maybe I can talk some friends into a road trip this summer!

It's about 3 hours from the south suburbs of Chicago. Chitown must drive pretty slowly if it takes him sometimes 4 hours from Elgin. ;) Just kidding around man.

Here's a tip on the dells... don't go to Tommy Bartlett's robot world. It is a real waste of time.
