New pics, new journal entry...
Pics of interest:
-Construction in thick fog on Nov 24
-lots of angles on the camel hump
Info of interest: (as of Dec 6th)
-the tower is currently 228 feet tall, two feet short of the tallest drop on Nitro, and half the total height of the ride
-22 track sections installed
-129-foot camel hump was topped out on December 4
And most interesting,
-All 456 feet of the tower itself will be completed by the end of the year as long as the weather cooperates.
That's a ton of work to do in less than a month, but I guess once the camel hump is done, all the effort can be focused on tower construction cause I'm sure those HUGE cranes cost a pretty penny to rent per day.
If you can't stand the heights, get out of the line.
More new photos from the 8th through the 11th. Judging by the last picture, I'd guess the tower is about 275' tall and growing taller by the day. The camel hump seems to be about 3/4 the way done and foundation work on the station and hydraulic launch building seems to be nearing completion. Enjoy...
If you can't stand the heights, get out of the line.
Haha no I'm not giving Patrick the finger
Either way it still exciting to see it go up. *** Edited 12/15/2004 2:34:09 AM UTC by Alex Nagel***
