 Alrighty, I have a really, really, really good update for you guys today. Do you remember yesterday's video or I think later today's video where I talked about the Wonderland Construction Site Trailer? Well, that trailer is gone. Lo and behold, you're gonna see me. I added a lot of it out, but I was trying to find it. You know, I was looking over here, looking over there. I was trying to find this trailer because that trailer, if you've ever heard me talk about it on the podcast even last year, wherever that trailer goes is where there is going to be a large scale construction project, whether it be a large flat ride, there was the possibility of it being Moosehorn Falls. But no, you'll see where that trailer went in just a second. Moosehorn Falls construction has come along pretty well. Over here, by Thunder Run, a dumpster, a large scale dumpster has been dropped off. This is located near the other foot entrance into the mountain. So I want you to take note of that. So another foot entrance into the mountain, this dumpster is stored near. It kind of makes sense. Right there next to the fly, also near the mountain is Canada's Wonderlands Construction Site Trailer. So if you also notice, Thunder Run's old station building right there, the multi-faith buildings, doors are open. I want you to keep note of that, okay? So I'm not saying that's of importance, but all this is located around the mountain. A lot of the survey markings have been around the mountain. If you're a Patreon, you know some information that I've shared on Patreon that I will not share in this video. That is very informative to our 2024 season and 2025 season. So with some of that information, you can kind of start piecing together what you're seeing on the screen right now. Outside of that, I do want to say that the thing that we thought was a footing outside the mountain was not actually a footing, by the way. It was the storage materials to support the tunnel that were all just stored under the tarpaul they were gone for a week. It was just in a square formation and it looked like it could have been a footing, but it was not. But I will say, trying to think of what's coming up on the next on the screen, what you're about to see over here with the 2025 project, the tunnel, I have a lot to tell you. I've learned everything that is actually going on and why they're doing it the way they're doing it, and it makes a lot of sense now. So over at Front Gate, a lot of work electronically inside that left building, that still continues. There's gonna be new systems, new everything, so that's really interesting, so it's gonna be cool to watch. The Front Gate is coming along nicely and the new welding on Leviathan is coming along nicely as well. So those braces for the netting have gone up and will continue to go up. And yeah, so that's all taking place at Front Gate. Really excited to see what the park has to say in a week or two about that, hint hint. But yeah, outside of that, nothing else going on over at Extreme Skyflyer, but over at the 2025 project, they started drilling the tunnel. So it was really cool. I caught the whole drill process for one of the footings, not footing for a coaster, by the way, footing for tunnel. So you're gonna get to see that. So definitely, I don't know, I personally thought it was really cool. I don't know if anyone's ever seen the whole process to digging out a footing, but lo and behold, here it is and you'll get to see it. Outside of that, I'll describe what's going on. So again, this is all confirmed information that I have spent really hard work understanding. So right there, all the supports in the tunnel, why do you guys think that they would need to support the entire roof of the tunnel in the mountain? Look what's on it right now. So that tunnel on the regular basis would not be able to support that heavy of an equipment. It needed that extra bracing throughout to hold that heavy piece of machinery. So that is all the reason why those bracing are in there. So what's gonna go on is they're gonna dig these new footings for a new tunnel. It is essentially the same width and height as the current tunnel right there. And nothing is going to change from what I understand. They are just going to build a stronger and newer tunnel. So to put it into perspective for you guys, this tunnel that you're looking at right now has been in the park since opening year. It is as old as the park. So they're not obviously gonna launch a brand new coaster into this old tunnel that has been there since the beginning of time. So essentially, yes, the bracing in the tunnel has been put in there to support this heavy machinery literally just to go up there and dig new footings to build a new tunnel around this tunnel, which then they will go in and dismantle this tunnel. Why they do it this way? Don't ask me. I'm promising you that is what I've been told is going on. So I am going to understand that that's just how they got to do it. But yeah, so what you're seeing there is they send the drill in, they bring it over to that pile, they shake out all the dirt, they then put that drill back into that formation, that little cylinder metal formation, and they're gonna drill down again. And it'll lower and lower and lower. So you're actually gonna see that in about 30 seconds on this screen right now. So you're gonna see them try and fit that drill bit right into that cylinder metal shape. And then they're gonna start drilling and it's gonna lower and lower as the ground gets deeper. Now, it's gonna take a while to do all these spots that they need to do it, okay? And I'm gonna explain why, the clay. So the further down you get, the harder and stickier that clay gets, the more they have to shake it off. It looks easy on camera. So do us watching right now. This looks super easy, but it's not. This machine, every time it digs a little bit, all the clay sticks in there and it's not really digging any further, they have to bring it up and scoop it all out. And they gotta do this 10, 12, 15 times over for one footing, and then they gotta move on to the next little spot. You see all those little orange dots if you're looking really close on the screen there? Yeah, those are spots where this drill's gotta go do that. So this is gonna be a long process, but it's gonna be really cool to see because once this tunnel is exposed from what I understand, there are a few holes in there inside that tunnel that will be very telling. So really excited to see those holes once they're done, but here you are. Here's that like process where it'll get a little lower and a little lower. But yeah, I don't know. If you were in our Discord server and I, so when I fly by the way, I'm in my Discord server and I was flipping my lid, I love this stuff. If you know me, you know that anything construction at Wonderland I love. I could sit there all day watching it in awe. I find what these construction workers do, these trades people do, so fascinating. I literally look up to just this whole job process and I just have such an appreciation for everything that they do. Like it's so cool. I don't know. I much rather watch a coaster get built than ride a coaster, truthfully. Anyone who knows me can vouch that that's a true statement from me. But yeah, nonetheless, this was around 5.30 p.m. So it had wrapped up. They are still working on that first hole. So to put that into perspective, they got about one hole done in a eight hour day of work. So just think about that. This is gonna be a long process over on the tunnel side. So I'm hoping that over on the Thunder Run side of things, we start seeing some work going on over there. Well, the construction workers do their thing over here. So I'm really looking forward to seeing what's gonna happen on the other end of the matter. If you want my honest prediction, what's going on over that mountain is they're gonna dig a little hole, a new kind of tunnel entrance with a ramp that goes down to the basement for vehicles to get in over on that end. So over on this end, that's my prediction, they're just gonna make it accessible by vehicles where you could normally enter via footpath. I do wanna touch on another thing. So if you've heard me talk before about what do you call it? The VIP area, my prediction is it's definitely gonna be either the extreme sky flyer bar or building next to extreme sky flyer or back lot cafe will become the new VIP area. That is a prediction. I have heard through the rumor mill or I guess like I've been told that Wonderland will be releasing a video, a cool video for you guys in about a week or two with all of the information about everything new for 2024. So I would definitely look forward to that. I think it's gonna be really cool and the park put a lot of time into that. So I'm excited to see that. I'm excited to see everything new and see where they picked for the VIP area and the name for it, why they removed extreme sky flyer or their reasoning, they're gonna talk about that from what I've heard and just yeah, the front gate. So they're gonna talk about that too. So yeah, I'm really excited. And yeah, I'm glad, I guess I'm happy I could share that with you guys about that coming out in about a week or two. With that being said, I think that's all I have to say about the 2025 projects. Again, really excited to see this unfold. I definitely suggest self promo, subscribing to Patreon. I post a lot of information. I just dropped my February newsletter and this one was packed with a lot of information. I had a really cool opportunity yesterday involving the park and I'm really excited for the future. And yeah, let's just say, like I'm working on something really cool for you guys, like really cool. So I'll be excited to share more details about that as they unfold. And thanks so much for supporting the channel and watching these construction updates. Don't forget to drop a like, okay? Drop a like, a comment, it helps the video get out there and thanks so much. See you in tomorrow's video. Bye.
