[4K 60fps] Timber Mountain Log Ride Post Refurbishment On-Ride POV Forwards, Knott's Berry Farm 2024

SPOILERS ALERT: Finally being able to experience a Full Day of Boysenberry Festival just in time towards my Birthday on May 6th especially for a Popular Demand two additional weekends so I can mainly focus on seeing the show "Knott's Preserved" for the first time and overall the Best Theme Park show I ever seen with the Unique Song heard since the Park's 100th Celebration in multiple segments as well as Referenced songs and awesome gear! (Click here to watch replay vlog: https://www.youtube.com/live/fmZlYHkU... ). As for the snagged POVs this visit, Finished off the Big POV of Silver Bullet and of course began a 2024 edition project of Timber Mountain Log Ride freshly reopened. On what's changed for this one from the last maintenance aside from the Animatronics' okay to bad conditions are the Track Section repaint to look like the 2013 POV from post 2nd show scene to the cave with a first drop (I prefer dark green-blue to blend in with the rest of the mountain to feel more natural rather than run of the mill track color), and of course the NEWLY Retracked section on the bottom of the first drop with brownish color into it, slightly smoother I feel like. The clips I did are the Zen Forwards POV along side the Backwards POV that I didn't lose my current GoPro, I managed to also snag the whole queue line especially with different exit stairs. For another visit, I might as well shoot more extensive footages and maybe around the mountain, Night POV will be separate especially with minimum people.




It opens to the public originally on July 11th 1969.



The Timber Mountain Log Ride is a themed log flume water dark ride at Knott's Berry Farm in Buena Park, California, United States. The ride is themed after the Knott's Calico Ghost Town. The ride is one of the oldest log flumes in the United States and is the most popular ride at Knott's Berry Farm. Moreover, the Timber Mountain Log Ride celebrated its 50th anniversary on July 11, 2019 with unique merchandise, 2 new animatronic figures and the addition of a soundtrack developed exclusively for the log ride by Krazy Kirk and the Hillbillies.



Ride
Originally known as the "Calico Log Ride" (considered groundbreaking in its time) it takes riders through a 330-foot long mountain with a theme of a 19th-century lumber camp. The ride is housed in an eight-story building that contains 24,000 gallons of water and finishes in a 42-foot free fall.

The original concept of the Timber Mountain Log Ride was not a log flume, but rather a roller coaster which appeared to float in a trough. However, after discussions with Arrow Development co-founders Ed Morgan and Karl Bacon, the ride's designer Bud Hurlbut chose to use a log flume ride system. The development of scenes throughout the ride saw Walter Knott approve the ride for construction. The initial $3.5 million cost for the ride was funded by the Hurlbut Amusement Company, with the ride later being sold to the park.

Timber Mountain Log Ride opened on July 11, 1969 with John Wayne on its inaugural ride. In January 2013, Knott's Berry Farm announced that the ride would undergo a five-month renovation to include animatronic figures and new scenes, while retaining the ride's theme of a 19th-century lumber camp. The ride closed on January 6, 2013, and reopened on May 31, 2013. The refurbished ride features animatronics produced by Garner Holt Productions.

During December 2012, Knott's Berry Farm decided to give the park's most popular attraction a major overhaul and upgrade. This was beginning of a major change in the park's direction with moving back into themed attractions rather than just thrills. Cedar Fair had originally planned to add another major roller coaster in Knott's Ghost Town area. However, with a change in leadership at Knott's Berry Farm and Cedar Fair, it was decided to cancel the plans for another roller coaster. Instead, the park used those funds to begin a major refurbishment and upgrade to the Timber Mountain Log Ride.
