While I would love to see the Yeti, I hope EE isn't closed for refurb in June 2013. We love riding it and would be so sad to miss it
StitchKingdom is reporting construction permits were filed for Expedition Everst this morning, will we finally see some life breathed back into lifeless Betty the Yeti?
Anyone got anymore info?
EE being down for any amount of time could cause some headaches touring wise at AK but would be so worth it IMO to see the Yeti restored to it's original working state.
But seriously I cant imagine that ride without a working Yeti
That darn creature has been broken for so many years that I can't imagine there are that many people who have actually seen it working.
You all do realize that to fix the Yeti, they would basically have to dismantle the majority of the mountain, right?

I love EE, but I honestly don't care whether or not the Yeti is working. You see it for a few seconds and then you're gone.

I couldn't tell the difference . The dates of when it went down,and people here on the Dis, are the only way I have of knowing that it was working the first time I rode it. I know it matters to a lot of people, and I wouldn't really be upset if they decided to close EE to try and fix the Yeti, but I personally would rather Disney spend the money else where. HS could use a healthy dose of TLC.
Are you SURE it was working the first time you saw it?
It's been my experience that people who recently "saw a working Yeti" release they were mistaken when they watch footage of the Yeti actually in "A mode".
When people say "I think it was working", my response is "if it was working, there would be no doubt in your mind".
