Returned from Mt. Everest

Official report from the new Dis hotspot. AWESOME!!!!!!

I am not one for "thrill" rides, but this one was worth the wait. We planned on going on a 2nd time, but it got too crowded. We'll wait to ride it again, but the sneak peak was terrific (even for someone who hates the dark like me." I want a Yeti smilie .

Is this open to the public yet?

Sorry! Not yet. I guess they needed to use CMs and passholders to test it out. We received an invitation and raced out there this morning. We got there just as the park opened. I can't believe there are that many CMs and passholders.

The overall opinion was . Well worth the trip and a great addition to AK. Downside: the park usually fills up quickly and today it was really packed. We'll definitely do it again when it "officially" opens. I'm not sure but I think I heard April.

I will be visiting WDW in March and I have a few questions about EE that I hope someone could help me out

1) For those of you who have been on EE and are CM's how do you get on the ride? How do they know you are a VCM? Do you have to give the ticket people something before you get on?

2) Is this EE preview only for a limited time?

Thanks for your help!

Was it scary in any aspect?...I like BTMRR but hate TT, and not a fan of Splash either. I like Dinosaur. SO do you think I could do it? We are AP/DVC holders do you think there is any hope for a March preview? Thanks for the report.

Ummm... I am really afraid of heights, but I do ride spash mountain (I always close my eyes at just the right moment) do you think I could ride this? would I know when the "right" moment was???

Also I thought it was supposed to be open this summer of 06?

 

[EEYOREMAMA]

I think that I would compare the overall feel of this ride to a combination of Space Mt and Big Thunder Mt. It is wooden like BTM but dark like SM. I would think about it, before going on -- especially with younger kids.

Thanks for the post. I am really looking forward to trying Everest in May.

Since this is really off topic for the Welcome Board, I'm moving it to Theme Parks Attractions and Strategies.
