From folks who have ridden Expedition Everest lately...

Not goin there....

I said it last year: replace it with a real sasquatch...or Chuck Norris.

To the op: Yeti is still down this week, flashing strobe is still in place.

A restored full-motion yeti will be in place within six months. Unfortunately, the attraction will have to be shut down during the installation process.

Great news, Ron! Thanks for that!

I would differ a bit on the number of hours [(I'd be more in the 4-5 range)...but most of that would be doing multiple rides on EE]...but I do agree on it not being as much fun...I'm not sure why but to us, it always feels a little hotter and more crowded than the other parks. The time we most enjoy it is late in the afternoon or at dusk (EEis wonderful then), but its seldom open at that time.

I think it seems more crowded because the pathways are narrower. Being fascinated with wildlife as I am, I don't find it less fun than the other parks, though.

Thanks, WDWdriver for giving me a hope, as well as a reason (as if any were needed) to come back within the year.

I would really love for them to fix the yeti. In it's full glory, it was an amazing effect. Now some people say they didn't even SEE the yeti. What a waste. :-(

Hi Ron Long time, no see!

Is that a "true" rumor"? Any idea where we can find out more? PM me if you need to.
