Honestly this track goes well with six flags the drive over there to the scenery when your on the rides . I love six flags as a rollercoaster enthusiast. Looking to go to New Jerseys great adventure
Very cool! Thanks for all the pictures! I wonder if some of those park maps would be collectors items today if you had an actual hardcopy? I would think they would have some value. I first went to Magic Mountain in the spring of 1993. I remember riding Z-Force which I thought was a cool ride. Since then, I’ve gone back probably a total of Five times with my last visit being in 2009. I am way overdue to get back up there and hit the park again!
Someone needs to do an animated video recreation of the Magic Pagoda.I remember bits and pieces of it. The talking Buddha. The mirror maze. Indoor streams and clothes lines. I think there was some image of a dragon projected on the ceiling at one point.
here I am : a fan of Six Flags Magic Mountain , who lives in Brazil and met the park in rollercoaster Tycoon 2 and my favorite toys to care are VIPER And X2. Man, when I saw the photos of the construction of the viper and the x2 in the video, I was thrilled I almost cried ! How beautiful the photos!
I rode all of those rides shown in the first two minutes and twenty seconds. Loved the Mountain Express and the Gold Rusher. I think the Gold Rusher was the only roller coaster when the park opened. There was also a log ride. The Barrels were lame. I use to throw paper airplanes and drop things from the lower level of the Sky Tower...maybe that's why they closed it. Loved the Spin-Out, but too many people puked on it. The lamest was the Funicular which was the only shortcut down the mountain from the tower to the main enterence area. Spillikin Corners was a place to waste time making candles and not going on rides. The Magic Pagoda was an acid trip with a talking Buddha, strobe lights, and magic disappearing chambers.
Emanuel, Thank you for posting this! My Uncle, Eugene "Doc" Lemmon, picked the site of, and named the Park Magic Mountain when he was one of the VP's of Seaworld in the late 1960's.The logo depicted on the first park map at: 015-19 was designed by my cousin, and was only used for a few years. My Uncle used his past Disneyland experience for being the number 1 man, the President there. In Todd James Pierce's book, "Three Years Of Wonderland", which was published in April of 2016, which tells untold stories in a book of the making of Disneyland, on page 104, my uncle is cited as, "the fifth official employee of Disneyland". Hope you all enjoyed hearing about some of the history of the Park!
Well Mr. Carlos, all I. can say is your uncle has MY RESPECT FO' EVAH!!!! Couldn't have picked a better name or a better sight for an EVER GROWING AND AWESOME amusement park.......MR. Eugene "DOC" Lemmon, sir, Sean Lewis SALUTE YOU!!!!🙌👍 Six Flags Magic Mountain FO' LIFE!!!
