Happy Tuesday that feels like a Monday! Hope you all had a great long holiday weekend, and if you visited any parks you brought your patience with you. We made a quick stop at Magic Mountain on Friday before the weekend crowds showed up, only to see that it was Middle School day in the park. Needless to say, this was the shortest visit I've made to the park since they reopened last year. I think I was at the park for about 45 minutes tops. But that was enough time to get some pics and video of what's going on around the park, and use my skip the line pass on Full Throttle. I also apologize for the brightness of the pics/video. It was overcast and very bright and not the best day to get pics. Everything looks washed out. Oh well. It happens. =) Let's get into the update! Written by Gregg Condon I know we'd been discussing a July 4th opening, and they could technically still make it, but it will be close. We had heard track was to be completed by the end of May, that's obviously not happening. Even if it's done by the end of this week, that leaves barely a month to finish if they're hoping for July 4th. I just don't see it happening. Right now I'd say a mid-July opening. But obviously we'll update you all if we hear any different. Related Videos

Happy Saturday and welcome to another update from Six Flags Magic Mountain! Normally we wait until Monday's to post these updates, but things are happening so fast with construction right now, they'd be outdated by then. Lots of twisty awesomeness to show you today so let's get right into it. Written by Gregg Condon We also did a second video, "Five Things I Would Do at Six Flags Magic Mountain If I Was in Charge". But I kept this realistic, and honestly, rather low cost. So you're not going to see "Add a Giga" or "Open the Sky Tower" in this video. Related Videos
