Hersheypark 2004

For those who have been to the park lately, you've got to have noticed the flags and markers around the Trailblazer/Flying Falcon area in Pioneer Frontier. More flags have been spotted around the Trailblazer lately to.

However for those who haven't been there, I found some pictures from Hershey Park Online that show pictures of the markers. Believe me - you'll want to check out Hersheypark in '04 :)

The Claw has also been up and running, and looking very cool.

It says "The area where the new coaster will stand"... so then it's official I guess. My guess is they'll really step it up in 2004.

I'm not so sure just a few flags here and there mean a new coaster's coming do you? It could be water, sewer, power or some other form of piping. I won't complain if it turns out to be a coaster though... ;)

CoasterBGW said (in a different thread):
The markings were all over the TrialBlazer area. A lot of people will say that it is just for power lines or water line. I don't think so because there are just to many of them in the area for that. My personal feeling was that was my last ride on TrailBlazer and a new being for a new ride. Also the markers where surevey markers.

Not only that, I've spoken to a (former) employee which worked with the lift/braking system on the coasters (can't think of what the poistion is called right now, but it was some sort of mechanical job) and he gave me some very good information on the attraction heading there this year.

Is it the offseason already? Why didn't anyone tell me?

Is Hershey Park any good? Considering going there. BGW is the other choice. How big is Hershey? I'm from Michigan, and if it's anything like MIA, I don't want to waste my time.

Xterra, Hershey is HUGE and is also a great park. Why don't you visit their website and do some more investigating of your own? Afterall, they paid a lot of money to have the snazzy website.

If you have a problem with clones, the solution is real simple—Stop traveling.

Let me clear some things up here:

The flags near the mid course brake run of TrialBlazer seem to be in two stright lines about 5 feet about lenght and about 10 feet width. Then around the whole TrialBlazer area there are little orange flags, and by the entrance there are blue and green flags (blue I assume is for water and green for electrical). You decided...

Here are pictures from my visit to HersheyPark on May 25. The park is big and I recommend for anyone to go.

I'll say it again.. The 2 best amusement parks in the world are only 400 miles apart. Cedar Point and yes.....you guessed it.. Hersheypark!

Just when you think you have all the answers, I change the questions

Nice pictures. Is it smaller than CP?

It is smaller...

Here is one half of the park:

And here is the other:

There is a little inbetween the two but close enough.
