WOW! It seems to have been being built forever, but coming along nicely now

Will try to take some pics in October when we are there! Sadly for me this could well be a ride that takes me just a while to go on

We got an amazing view of the coaster from the top of one of the water slides at Blizzard Beach.

Looks really good, Animal Kingdom needed to add some more rides as it is a poor relation to the other parks.

It is now confirmed that ride testing is well underway, can't wait this is going to be a good coaster.

Wow Dave really? I thought the "imagineers" were still discussing the design elements as it was being built? Didn't think we had got as far as "testing" !! It is looking a step too far for me, but look forward to hearing the screams

I'll try to get some but for now:-

The Story
Legend holds that high in the Himalayan Mountains lives an enormous creature that fiercely guards the route to Mount Everest.

Now that legend comes dramatically to life at Disney's Animal Kingdom in a new high-speed train adventure that combines coaster-like thrills with the excitement of a close encounter of the hairy kind.

Walt Disney World guests will discover for themselves the fearsome legend of the yeti when Expedition EVEREST opens in 2006 at Disney's Animal Kingdom theme park.

"Expedition EVEREST adds a new dimension to our storytelling in Disney's Animal Kingdom," said Joe Rohde, executive designer at Walt Disney Imagineering and lead designer of the park. It's a thrilling adventure themed to the folklore of the mysterious yeti.

In Expedition EVEREST, guests board an old mountain railway destined for the foot of Mount Everest. The train rolls through thick bamboo forests, past thundering waterfalls, along shimmering glacier fields and climbs higher and higher through the snow-capped peaks.

But suddenly the track ends in a gnarled mass of twisted metal and the thrills intensify as the train races both forward and backward through mountain caverns and icy canyons and guests head for an inevitable face-to-muzzle showdown with the mysterious yeti -- known to some as the abominable snowman..

Does anyone know if Everest goes upside down? I cannot stomach the upside down bit and feel terrible afterwards. I was looking forward to the ride opening but I'm not sure I'll be up to it!

This ride looks absolutely brilliant. I can't wait to go on it next summer and hope that the height restriction is not too bad so Harriet can go on it
