That is a good 8 years after the opening of Thunder Mountain in 1979. I seem to remember that when I was there in 1997, it was still flowing and then it was torn down soon afterward. <br /><br />I hope that helps.Orange Co Nativenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-78769793612661145462011-01-17T13:10:21.627-08:002011-01-17T13:10:21.627-08:00I like the last photograph of the Indian Village, ...I like the last photograph of the Indian Village, Different mood when seen at night or near dusk.

No, the falls were actually kept running, afaik the whole time, as they could still be seen by the rivers. In fact water damage was the cause I'd heard cited for their demolition (setting aside details that would entail any investment, like maintenance or repair).Chiana_Chathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18329208224763179478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-42323460867849482422011-01-17T00:52:10.858-08:002011-01-17T00:52:10.858-08:00Very cool pics of a scene reflecting a key part of...Very cool pics of a scene reflecting a key part of Frontierland - the people of the land - that "we" seem to be too touchy to include anymore... progress? Hm.<br /><br />Tarps are covering the birch lodge. Looks like the re-creation wasn't quite perfected and sprung some leaks? None the less I'm fascinated by it for some reason. Would sure like to see it in person if something like it were there today.<br /><br />"The shiniest boy in the world" LOL I see he's armed himself! :pChiana_Chathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18329208224763179478noreply@blogger.com
