The Grizzly Mountain attraction is a rehashing of DCA's awful Grizzly river run, only with another roller coaster; and the Mystic Manor will probably go the way of the original Tower of Terror. <br /><br />They will most likely cut back on that planned attraction to the point where what the guest is left with is some minor pre-show an off-the-shelf ride system withAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8843951187592993602.post-16203495352289593932010-01-26T01:30:03.309-08:002010-01-26T01:30:03.309-08:00I wish they would have used this Grizzly Trail and...I wish they would have used this Grizzly Trail and Grizzly Mountain idea at California Adventure.

I hope Toy Story one day meets Frank Baum and his OZ Kingdom characters which Walt Disney purchased the rights to.
