^ There is also another footer, waiting, in the center.

The rest of the supports for the first drop into the trench are currently on a flat bed in the staging area.

 

[RollermanDan]

Footers? Or did you mean supports? ;-)

 

[Hatetofly]

^Thanks, and here is one from today.

Work has started in the trench! Scroll down: http://www.johnnyupsidedown.com/cheetahunt5.html

I have to say, it looks better than what it looked like from the pov.

New update today...

http://www.rollercoasterpro.com/updates/bgt12.21.10/

A lot of work has been done since we've been gone. Today, track was being transported into the former Rhino Rally water portion site. The track for the canyon run is complete as well. The third trench is receiving it's rebar for the concrete slab. Work is also progressing around the station area.

Looks like they want to make their opening on time.

A nice BG Holiday card

Many thanks to our artist, and newest resident Steelman, a 12-year old male cheetah. He recently moved to Busch Gardens Tampa with his roommate Ngoma from White Oak Conservation Center to be a part of the all-new Cheetah Run. He is one of 250 cheetahs in The United States, and is part of the Species Survival Plan through the Association of Zoos and Aquariums.

Nothing new to report on today. The place was quiet and the only noticeable difference was that the rebar for the other side of the third trench is down. I also don't expect much if at all any work done for the next two days due to Christmas Eve and Day.

[Octobers Fade]

When is this planned to open?

 

[Octobers Fade]

^ The Official word is "Spring" 2011.
They are moving quick with the assembly, that is for sure.

Yeah, they might even open earlier than the last 3 DAYS before Summer. Not that I'm still bitter about WWOHP or anything.
