We visited Knott’s Berry Farm on March 13, 2024. More track has been removed on Montezooma’s Revenge! Both spike sections are gone. Also walked around Camp Snoopy to check out the work going on there including the construction of the new Snoopy’s Tenderpaw Twister Coaster.

Thank you for keeping the best iconic intro ever. Also thank you for continuing to cover Knott’s Berry Farm. You are the best Theme Park YouTuber ever. I wish you the best on your YouTube channel. Also I can’t wait until you get to ride the new Montezooma Ride.
I had no idea there used to be a bridge between that spot and the waterfalls! Very cool history!
Woo! So many projects in So Cal. Love it
I wish they would have brought that bridge back as part of the Camp Snoopy revamp…it used to be fun to get up there and bounce the bridge on my brother or friends lol
Plus it just made that area look cooler…and would definitely fit into the whole making it more like an actual Summer Camp theme
I would lowkey be completely ok with it if Knott's just decided to remove the entire thing, and get a completely new, custom Vekoma Super Boomerrang in its place.
Went last Friday and was so excited to see the 2nd spike removed while riding Silver Bullet, for 2 reasons – work on the project continuing and assuredly that means an ACN update.
It was called Lake of the Reflections. They had a chapel, too, where lots of people got married. They moved it across the street to build Silver Bullet.
I was there today too
Oooh..a bit risky having old track in same lot with new.Imagine a scrap company hired to take away the old track and instead takes away the brand new Camp Snoopy coaster too. 😂
…still waiting for that Knott's giga.
I hope they carry the temple theming all the way up both spikes. It would be even more cool if there was a torch that triggered when the train was at the top of the spikes. That said, I'm just glad that the ride is sticking around. It's one of my favorite night rides and growing up with SFGA as one of my home parks, Tidal Wave was one of my first 'big' looping coasters so riding any Schwarzkof shuttle coaster will always be nostalgic to me.
all new track by installing a vekoma super boomerang
Just retrack Montezooma's Revenge, give it modern trains, a snazzy paint job, throw in an LSM launch system, and call it a day.
You can get a full overview of the construction if you ride stagecoach as it goes overtop of camp snoopy area.
Question but how could steel get refurbished. Steel naturally weakens with stress and that coaster has 50 years of stress. I figure either they need the track for specs or they are reusing it and needed to take it out because they have to do some support/foundation work. I could see the entire support structure coming down and rebuilt. We don't know the reason why work was ever stopped but one of the rumors was foundational issue.
Wonder if the same group doing the big train track replacement is doing the kids train. Since it didn't start till the bigger train project was paused.
