I saw those pictures today too. Man, that turn in the tunnel looks sweet, so does the rest of the ride. I am definatly going to the Dells this year, for Hades plus Avalance looks awesoem too.
If this ride lives up to it hype you can expect it on the top ten list for best wooden coaster since there will be an ACE coaster con there this summer. If the lights on that tunnel are off I'm afraid of this coaster.

The bestest part of that ride, yea i said bestest, is probably going to be that VERTICAL turn in the tunnel! How creative, they're going to experience some major g's in that turn and throughout the whole ride. But does anyone know the path of it, like which side of the tunnel is which?
All I can say is WOW. This is probably one of the most impressive looking wooden coasters I have ever seen. That turn in the tunnel in my view can top any vertical loop or corkscrew. I cannot wait to ride this ride. I have been on skycoaster, and I was nervous with that. I am just looking at the construction pictures and I am getting nervous. This is one ride that will rock my nervous system. I usually dont get scared or nervous..but this is a different story. AMAZING!
Hello once again everybody. HOLY JUNK that thing looks insane! Well I'm excited... That ride looks brutal. And I thought the turn on Cyclops was as viscious as it could get. YIKES!
wow...I was up there during spring break...it looked like there were two small coasters....then we look closer and realize we were standing over the coaster....(the tunnel)...that's someting I'd be willing to go to Wis Con Sin for....
Every jumbled pile of person has a thinking part that wonders what the part that isn't thinking, isn't thinking of.

yeah i wanted to go but i couldnt b/c ther was no room
They have the first drop into the tunnel, but all they have are a bunch of huge rocks seperating the parking lot from the tunnel. Don't you think they should put something else like a got to keep someone from getting hurt?
I went up north for a fishing trip at Castle Rock Lake. Passing by the Dells I had to stop and get on Hades. I only rode one ride but it was a blast. The tunnel is amazing. If you are anywhere near the Dells its worth the stop to ride. I wish I had more time to ride it a few times.
I was at the Dells the past two days and got a few rides on Hades. It's alright, the tunnel is so dark though you really don't know what's going on...you just basically get thrown from one side to the other.
I can't even tell you where the 90 degree turn was, didn't feel it or see it on any of my rides. Overall it's a pretty good ride with some airtime. It's probably the second best coaster in the Dells far behind Avalance...which just might be one of the best in the world.
