Six Flags Magic Mountain Update - March 22, 2019

Picture
Today while out and about getting my race stuff for the LA Marathon on Sunday I figured I'd make a quick stop at Six Flags Magic Mountain to see what's going. Especially since our last update from the park was ... checks calendar ... Holiday in the Park? That can't be right? But alas, it is. 

​Lots to get to, let's head in!! 

Written by Gregg Condon
It was a beautiful day at the park. Cool and sunny. 
Picture
This is new since our last visit (although we know, not necessarily new). 

I asked if I could get my front of the line for my Diamond Membership here, but nope, can only get it at the Flash Pass office. 
Picture
Of course, this was probably a 20-30 minute wait. So I passed. I have yet to use this benefit of my pass. They have to come up with a better way to get people their free front of the line passes (and premiere parking for that matter). 
Picture
Really wanted to ride Rev today, but it was down when I passed by. 
Picture
Roaring Rapids is closed for refurbishment so the path ends here. You have to go up through Samurai Summit or all the way around to get to Jet Stream and Dive Devil. 
Picture
Part of the reason we haven't been to the park since November, other than being insanely busy, is that there really isn't much going on with West Coast Racers. 
Picture
We did hear that they started (finally) pouring footers yesterday. 
Picture
With other parks located in far worse weather locations opening their rides in the next few weeks or a month, there really is no excuse for this. Sure they are redoing a lot, but they knew that going in. 
Picture
We have a great relationship with SFMM, but we've always told it like it is. It's simply baffling that the park can't seem to get rides open for the start of summer season. It wasn't always this way either. It's just been the last few rides. 
Picture
That said, we really are looking forward to West Coast Racers and I know the ride and surrounding area will be amazing when it's done. 
Picture
A couple of zoomed in shots, sorry, didn't have the good camera today so cell phone zoom is all ya get.

The re-track of Apocalypse is continuing as well. Hoping that the ride is back to it's opening year glory!! 
Picture
Picture
It is quite a big construction area. We aren't sure how many Star Wars Lands fit in here though. =) 
Picture
Picture
Down below, the walls end just after the preview center. It's nice that they've kept it open, even if it's just so us nerds can get pics through the windows.

Picture
Truck-Blocked!!! =) 
Picture
Lots of work going on all over the site 
Picture
Picture
Picture
And also near Cyclone 500 (which I've totally never done). 
Picture
Picture
Diggin' the holes!!! 
Picture
And lastly, Jet Stream is also getting a refurb right now. 
Picture
Alright, that's gonna wrap it up!! We have no idea when we'll be back at the park, I'd imagine once West Coast Racers is semi-vertical they may do some kind of tour in the near future. 

As far as when the ride will open, right now, your guess is as good as ours. But it will definitely be summer, not spring. 

Hope you enjoyed the update!!
