A brief but beautiful gallery. It's fascinating to see how much roller coasters have evolved since these old wooden ones. I almost wish they hadn't! Can't stand all those loops. XD

Apparently the wood was salvaged to make Adirondack chairs that would be sold for charity.

I'm surprised someone hasn't tossed a lighted match in there
How deep do you suppose they had to pour the concrete to support that structure? I would think they would have to be pretty deep.
looks like a neat fort
I've never ridden a wooden coaster but I'll tell you after seeing these photos, I doubt I ever will. They do say it's a very unique experience.
someone should recycle that wood and make something, then they can put a sign up "once was famous roller coaster". . .
wow, I had eye surgery yesterday then come back today and find a new gallery! Thanks! Abandoned amusement parks are right up there with hospitals.

What a swampy mess! Reminds me of the coaster in NOLA. But, the boarding on this one is even worse.

The browns and grays mixed with a touch of green.
