Looks like they're building up a lot of land under the track here

Looks like a cave-like entrance at the very tippy top of that pic!

Vines, foliage, maybe even more ruins, should cover it up entirely from view.

Also, really zoom in on this pic to see themed forms inside the drop structure:

I think that temporary platform was built to load in large clay pots of Devil’s Snare... I just know it....

Also to mention, it seems they are getting as much dirt as they can, and will be trying to cover the tall footers that are higher up, as seen after the third launch's U-Turn.

In retrospect, I wonder if this could give us a small glimpse to how Universal will handle verticality somewhat with DryGateIII.

Otherwise, some more from Bio.

Thinking this is the start of a rockwork wall to block view of end of ride from queue:

Ya know... I just figured out that the drainage from this work site flows right into the lagoon. That is the reason for the floating barriers. Look how brown the water is compared to outside in the main lagoon.



I bring this up because someone suggested it was for the JP coaster work. NOSSUH!

Updated track layout, now with some themed elements:

It might just be enough for them to plant tall pines around the vertical. It would give the effect of soaring into the tree tops.

I think the assumption that we are chasing a magical creature is the most plausible we’ve had yet! It makes the most sense with how we are getting into these buildings, through holes created by said animal. Exciting!

Barely visible in one of Bio's photos behind the drop building, these are test samples for interior rockwork and Devil's Snare tendrils off to the side of the area. One is a darkly painted rock section, and the other is oily black tendrils.
