Opening Weekend Iron Wolf Update

Deconstruction of Iron Wolf was finished the week after the park closed for the 2011 season. The station, exit, and most of the queue and footers remain. There was also one support left standing, for which Six Flags America appears to have fabricated a replacement for some reason.

Opening Weekend X-Flight Update

The park opened for the 2012 season this past weekend. As expected, the $20.00 online tickets made the park busier than usual for opening weekend. Obviously the biggest change is the addition of X-Flight. Most of the work is already complete. All that remains are a few fences and minor landscaping work. The ride was testing from 3:00 to close on Saturday and 11:00 to close on Sunday for training purposes.
