Hmmm, odd. I really enjoy Thunderhead quite a bit. Good thing everyone can have their own opinions!

I'm gonna have to return there to ride it again I guess! I know many people on here rank it very high on their list of wooden coasters. We rode it on 2 different days. It just seemed to throw us around (almost had to hold on which I NEVER do).

I know I'm not on the East Coast anymore, but I thought I would throw in one last trip report...

Little Amerricka!



This is a great little park in the middle of nowhere Wisconsin. It is a pretty small park, but has some nice old rides. It could really something new like the Kiddieland log ride or the Lincoln Park Comet, both rides that they own as the last thing they added was in 2007 with the Meteor. Its still a fun park, but it really needs a little more.

Bumper Cars
These run a really long cycle and are pretty fast. Unfortunately, they are one way only. If there were head on collisions, these would really be amazing!

Mad Mouse
Fun little ride. No restraints what so ever and some great air on a few of the last hills. They were only running one car today which made the line longer than it should. The other two were apparently in the welding shop. Don't know if that is good or bad. 20 minutes, C-



Monorail
This is a really nice ride that gives a tour of the park. Nice views and pretty long ride.



Scrambler
This runs a pretty nice cycle as well. It looks like it must have been painted this year as it looks like it is in great shape.



The Meteor
Also a very enjoyable ride. Love the old school hand brakes it still has. Still runs like a champ, other than one rough patch at the bottom of the first drop. Better "air" than Little Dipper at Great America. C, 15 minutes



Tilt A Whirl
My favorite Tilt A Whirl since Kiddieland closed. Once again, great cycle and runs pretty quick. Gotta love Mario on the centerpiece. I'm sure they have rights for it.



Toboggan
Yup, this torture device is awful. I think this was my last ride on it. I am too tall for it and it really just hurts with no reward. Cool that it is one of the last ones left, but I'm good on this one. F, 10 minutes



Whisky River Railway
This is a great train ride ride all around the property. Through the park, the forest, the farm, the prairie. Very long ride through the country of Wisconsin. Also love the fact the the owner is such a bug train guy and the park owns multiple trains. I have now been on two the the four that they own. I think there is a day in July when the pull all of them out for rides.


This is the only train I have seen them run before today.


The one they were using today.


Not many parks still have these and gotta say, I've done this one before and I'm not a fan.


Mini version of the one at Great Adventure.


Not many rides scare me, but I freaking hate Eli Bridge Wheels.


Love how the Kids area is inside the Little Dipper.


Nice but small carousel.


Fun, little Haunted House walk through.


If you build it, they will come. (Kiddieland Log Ride)



Overall it was a really nice day. Lots of fun to be had here at this little park in Wisconsin.

I got Wild One dead last too! Twins!

When did you ride it? It seems like it is the most unpopular opinion of the trip. Odd, because it really is that bad.
