I have heard in many cases where people say that Cedar Point has hardly any trees. What were they thinking? Cedar Point has bundles of trees. And, when they tear down a tree, 2 years later its back! Even if they do lack in trees in some areas, the Frontier Trail makes up for it.

2025- "I can't believe Cedar Point has a 750 ft. tall coaster, won't it sink?"
I guess we really don't see that portion of the park too much.

When a picture is taken at an angle like that, the factor of distance is harder to percieve. If you would plant 3 alternating trees 100' apart from each other and took a picture at that angle, it would look a lot more crowded that it really was.
Now, I'm not saying that there aren't quite a few trees in that area, I really do think it's a lot less crowded than it looks. The truth is, Cedar Point does not have as many trees as other parks, and that doesn't necissarily mean the park is bad. There is no such thing as a perfect park every park needs improvement somewhere. Cedar Point may just need a little work on the scenery.

I agree that Cedar Point could add a few more trees here and there......If I had to point out some "problem spots," I think that the area in and around Cedar Creek Mine Ride could have a few more trees planted in there. In my opinion, that ride could be a lot better if you couldn't see the entire thing from the first lift and you flew past trees as you went along the course.....the area around Mantis and Iron Dragon just seems "dirty" to me for some reason. This might be fixed now that Top Thrill Dragster is there.
Cedar Creek Mine Ride did have many trees around it for a number of years. Then, when Camp Snoopy was built in 1999, it lost a lot of that "wilderness" scenery. I don't think TTD has fixed anything. More trees were removed. Iron Dragon was a GREAT ride until Mantis was built. They removed a lot of trees in that area too. -Also, the Paddel Wheel Excursions got kind of defaced over the years do to the addtion of Mantis, Camp Snoopy, and Millennium Force. I miss that more "natural" look and appearance of Paddel Wheel Excursions. However, Cedar Point does have lots of wooded areas. I am impressed of how MF was constructed. They sort of weaved the ride through the trees, only removing the ones in its path. Light House Point will look great in about ten years once all the landscaping grows in. :-)

There are plenty off trees just off of the main midway. There is really no way to put trees in the middle of a vast concrete area that can already be extrmely crowded without dodging trees.
10 years ago you could see Maggie's line form the midaway. Today you can't unless you know it's there. Tress will regrow.

Have you been in the Middle of Mean Streak lately?
It's a veritable forest. You used to be able to see the entire structure. Now there are 25 foot tall trees growing everywhere. Give it some time.
