Sure hope not! WE arrive on Saturday! Our youngest has been itching to ride this one. Now that he is tall enough I hope it wont be down.

As reported in the Yeti thread in the News forum, Expedition: Everest will be closed for 3 days in October to work on the Yeti's movements. It remains operational right now.

I hope they fix it! I hear the experience just isn't the same as it was when EE first opened. We were lucky enough to ride in November 2007... absolutely awesome and now it's one of our favorite rides.

We're just disappointed AK won't have any late hours when we're there this year (week before Thanksgiving), but I know we sacrifice longer park hours when we go during the "off-peak" times of year. One of our favorite experiences last trip was riding EE again and again one night during evening EMH at AK! Hardly a wait ... we rode 6 times in a row. We also love the ambience of that area of AK when it's dark.

I have heard the closing will be in the beginning of October the first or 2nd week although this was before they extended free dining so who knows.

My husband and I go from 10/7-10/14. I sure hope it's not closed when we're there. That would be terrible!
