Hey everyone, basically carrying on from here: http://forum.towerstimes.co.uk/rct-and-nolimits/rct3-elmwood-lake-adventure-park-(your-views-6th-nov)/

Hello everyone,
The closed season at the park has been very quiet, maybe a little too quiet. Anyway, I popped down to the park on opening day last weekend to check out their brand new investment. It was boiling hot and very busy for a March day in England so I was glad that the new ride was a log flume called Woodland Falls. It is an Intamin Ride Trade flume ride and has one large-ish drop. The rest of the course meanders through the lovely woods that make up the park. It is situated on the hill above the Gold Rush wild mouse coaster and you can get great views over the second secluded lake now. Anyway onto the photos.
The stonework entrance arch to the new mini plaza where the ride is situated.
The queue was bursting out of the queue line entrance at just 15 minutes after opening. That's probably due to the combination of hot weather and it being a new ride. Also, the extended queue line was stupidly closed until about midday. :
The station is rather simplistic but it gets the job done and again, sticks with the rustic country feel present throughout the park.
You can just see the Gold Rush coaster to the left as you climb the 40-50ft lift hill on Woodland Falls.
A moderate soaking awaits each boat at the bottom of the drop. Plus, the heavier the boat, the bigger the splash. Trust me to get a full boat.
Overall, a solid addition to the park in my opinion. There could have been more to it I suppose but for such a small park, I think it does the job and I hope for bigger and better things in the future.
Until next time
Harry
