Several years ago I remember going to WnW for my birthday and going on a ride... you entered a cave, and I think the slides were light blue, and I think it was close to the racer (can't remember the name of that either). I know it's not much information, but does anyone know what ride it is and if it's still available there? I don't think I've seen it anywhere on the website... Also, what would the experience on the Tower of Terror be like? I used to be a wuss about going on any rides and have 'started' going on rides but right now the most I can force myself to go on is the Motocoaster and such (and everyone knows how crappy that is). A friend tried to force me on when I went yesterday and I just couldn't do it... for someone like me, how would that feel? I have a fear of heights as well, which also doesn't really help much... replies to the second paragraph have been relocated here http://www.parkz.com.au/forums/index.php?showtopic=5206

Those were one of the original WnW attractions from its early days...They started off without the mountain: http://www.parkz.com.au/photo/AU/Gold_Coas...ody_slides.html When the new Terror Canyon slides were added to the park they built a volcano type thing at the top of the hill as a platform for them to begin from, with the Whitewater Mountain slides being in a cave down below. At this point they painted the slides a darker blue. http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/st...nal/3338479.jpg But those slides (And im guessing that volcano) reached the end of their life....Here is the mountain and slides during the deconstruction process: http://www.parkz.com.au/photo/AU/Gold_Coas...nstruction.html They were then replaced by the River Rapids slides, built in the same spot in 2007...A pretty similar experience, except they made two of the slides enclosed: http://www.parkz.com.au/photo/AU/Gold_Coas...r_Mountain.html Edited by Gazza
