If you don't know about this site then you will love it. Go to www.historicaerials.com (http://www.historicaerials.com) and find great adventure. A historic aerial photo gallery from 1931 to 2007 shows great adventure from over 40 years before it was even built til the recent days of 2007. You can zoom in and out. You can even do the swipe feature to over lay present and past. This is the ultimate site. You can even check your neighborhood or house to see the history. You can even see round valley resivoir before it was created.

ENJOY

Had no idea that there were paths behind the lakes, and that the safari was that huge.

Wow yeah, that is pretty neat. I'll be playing with this for awhile.

As for those trails behind the lake, they are still there. BUT, they are private Six Flags property and going on them is considered trespassing.

It look like the Haunted Castle is being expanded.

Amazing at the difference in quality of the images for the different years.
Fun Site!
