Looks like they may have a little work to do if they are going to hit that June mark......

As promised here are some pics of the large forest/brush cut out near the old catastrophe canyon site and world drive.

I am not sure how recent the photos are.

What looks the be the conveyor belt on the opposite side of world drive near the new retention pond. May be on the ground and in prices but looks like it'll fit the job!

That doesn't surprise me, the current housing is off property in Orlando. This way Disney would have more control over the buildings, the land, taxes, etc.

All of the rumors came true.

And they are adding my favorite hobby..... not magic.....

great video - Love all the details (though agree they need to put out more benches). I loved how you tried to keep things anchored on the baloon or the welcome center so we could keep our bearings

Only bit of feedback is that sometimes it was hard to hear what you were say with the backgrund noise (not sure if you were using a headset or what) - was able to catch most of it, but just thought I would mention it

Thanks! I was definitely trying to keep the video anchored to familiar locations so that the viewer did not get disoriented! I'm glad it worked.

As for the narration, you are absolutely right! I noticed that when I edited the video, and I was frustrated by it. I tried using a pair of headphones with a built in mic in my Rope Drop Video (also on my channel), but I felt like I got a lot of wind noise using that method. Perhaps I need to invest in some sort of bluetooth headset with a windscreen, or I could do the narration later and layer it on top of the video and background noise. Either way, thank you for your comments! I definitely like the positive feedback as well as the constructive feedback. I'm always trying to improve!

I was expecting a much higher price.

I think FT. Wilderness is one of those Disney hidden gems that they haven't turned DVC or made it into a generic Disney resort yet. I'm glad it's staying that way and pricing isn't crazy.

A look at the new DHS firework launch site. Control bunker is being built and the black mortar tubes are in place behind it.
