"A new expedition in an uncharted territory awaits eager explorers with the upcoming debut of Calico River Rapids, opening at Knott’s Berry Farm in summer 2019. Knott’s white water raft ride, currently known as BigFoot Rapids, will undergo a major renovation with the addition of new features to the attraction including new animatronics, themed show scenes, a new story overlay and plenty of dynamic water effects."
Guests raft will enter caves and meet a giant Big Foot Audio-Animatronic - most probably built by Garner Holt Productions - let's hope it will work better than Expedition Everest Yeti!
New themed decor await guests all along Calico River Rapids!
"Calico River Rapids will take voyagers on a search for new land through the outskirts of Calico. Rafters will encounter a variety of wild surprises along the way, such as roaring rapids, and indigenous wildlife. The circular raft ride, which seats six passengers, will traverse through unexpected twists and turns, rushing waters and rapid currents as it navigates the unexplored river path."
Non-riding guests will be able to explode water when a raft will arrive with guests!
As Garner Hold said today on his Facebook page HERE "Our friends at Knott's Berry Farm are adding thrilling new life to a classic attraction. It's wonderful to see the Calico Ghost Town story expanding into some new territory with animatronics and detailed scenery in the new Calico River Rapids"
Can't wait for the opening next Summer at Knott's Berry Farm, which by the way was the first U.S theme park as it opened before Disneyland!
See pictures of the ride currently drained and being prepped to install new figures on Mice Age HERE.
