That being said, the Pony Express is a fun concept ride, set up like you are a horse jockey in a race. You even sit forward on the ride with your knees and back braced within the seat. It's medium fast and feels good after a water ride because you feel the wind in your face. Recommend!

We usually try to ride it each day that we're there, except it was down on tuesday morning. There have been times, when there was no line, so we went back in line, to ride it again.

Highly recommend taking a break with a slower ride without any upside down or fast spins before and after Silver Bullet for at least 30 minutes so you don't feel dizzy/out of sorts. Lines are typically 45 to 60 minutes long. Yesterday we chose the water rides before and after, and that was perfect. We cooled off/dried off as we waited our turn. Being in a pair was helpful to us today because we got called up to the front of the line earlier than larger groups to get on the ride, which has hanging seats 4 per row. Like at Ghost Rider and Hangtime, you'll need to get a locker (free, at the start of the line), to store your belongings before getting in line for the ride. Use a QR code to get assigned a locker, or use the touchscreen, and select a 4digit code and you're all set. Silver bullet is not for everyone, but if you're brave enough, it's crazy fun!!

It has just enough turns and curves that it is fun, but no drops for those who find rollercoasters scary. It is a good low-medium ride for those who want a little something without having their hearts leave their body. It's the perfect balance for someone who enjoys a bit of adrenaline but doesn't want anything too extreme. I usually only hop on when the lines are short, since it's a quick and enjoyable ride that's even better when you don't have to wait long. Overall, it's a solid coaster that I always enjoy revisiting whenever I'm at the park.

Today the line was an hour, first thing in the morning (the Knotts app updates super slowly, so whatever it says, add 30 minutes). At the beginning of the line, there's an area where you can pay $14 to mine for gold. Some tweens were doing so today and they looked cute because they were concentrating hard and seemed really into it! It's a long wait in line but as others have mentioned, it's worth it for the thrill of the ride AND the fact that the ride lasts longer than most other ones. Thrill factor 5 is right! Free lockers offered next to this spectacular rollercoaster so you don't have to worry about your stuff and can fully immerse yourself into the experience!! If you need a preview of what it's like because either it's been awhile since you've been on a rollercoaster or you're not sure if it's what you're looking for, there are 1st row point of view videos on You Tube. I just watched one and the real deal is infinitely better. Come check it out!!!

Then it takes you up duper high and you have to go back down backwards. It's so scary man lol I've been on this ride one time and it was just scary. I couldn't relax at all! It's so fast too and at times you feel like you are gonna die lol To me that is not fun at all lol But maybe someone else wants that appeal? I'd say if you have back or neck problems, avoid this ride. I can't see how it would be pleasant for you getting whipped around lol It is pretty looking at night with the purple lights.

For this ride, we're going back in time to ride Montezooma's Revenge Once you pull down the…read morelapbars, you wait for the operators to shout "clear dispatch" and launch out of the station from 0 to 55 mph. And if you haven't ridden a shuttle loop before, you're going to be caught off guard. Because despite this coaster being over 40 years old, this launch packs a PUNCH! Now granted, it's not Xcelerator good, but it's fun regardless. After that, we hit the vertical loop which is fun, you get some decent laterals. You then hit the spike before rolling back down into the loop. You then roll backwards through the loop which isn't nearly as good backwards. We then speed through the station before hitting the 2nd spike backward. This gives sus ome good hangtime before we stop in the station. Overall Montezooma's Revenge is a fun coaster, it's nothing special, but it's certainly more fun than it looks! Now, even though this ride is pretty average and it certainly hasn't aged as well as other coasters, I would've STRONGLY recommend riding this as it's a rare coaster credit! And I really hope it does reopen at Knotts because this is actually the last Schwarzkopf Shuttle Loop still operating in America and is one of 6 left in the World, as well as being a historical coaster since it's the oldest coaster still operating at Knott's, so without it, Silver Bullet, HangTime GhostRider or Xcelerator might not exist. But sadly, this ride closed in early 2022. Now, the reasoning was that this ride was going to be refurbished into Montezooma the Forbidden Fortress. It was to recieve a new randomized launch sequence and amazing theming. However, it's been in limbo for about 3 years now. Allegedly KumbaK (the company hired to do this project) did a horrific job in the removal process of the ride and they destroyed a lot of things they weren't supposed to. This led the ride to be left in a state of limbo for years and led A LOT of people to think that the project would be canceled and that the ride would be scrapped, resulting in the loss of ANOTHER Schwarzkopf (still pissed about Mindbender at Galaxyland and Scorpion at BGT closing, especially the way BGT handled that situation. But hey, at least they GAVE that ride warning. (COUGH COUGH KINGDA KA)). Thankfully, Knott's did come out and say that the coaster would open in 2025 and that it's not going away, which, THANK YOU! However, it's now 2025 and while work has occurred on the ride since then, we haven't gotten any other updates and the ride is still in pieces (and frankly looks abandoned). So Knott's, can we get an update PLEASE?!?!?! Even a simple, "we're still working with the manufacturer to get the ride open" would be appreciated. And if KumbaK really can't get the job done. PLEASE. GET SOMEONE ELSE TO DO IT. DO NOT GIVE UP ON MONTEZOOMA'S REVENGE (Again not very optimistic given how they handled Kingda Ka's closure. Seriously, not giving people a warning that the worlds tallest fastest closure is closing is F*CKING INEXCUSABLE). So please Richard Zimmerman or whoever else is calling the shots. Save Montezooma's Revenge. Sorry for the tangent, I just wanted to get my point across. Assuming the ride reopens, I strongly recommend riding it. It's a rare coaster that you can't find anywhere else in the world Final Score: 69/100 Opened May 21, 1978 Manufacturer: Schwarzkopf Last Ridden December 17th 2021

The roar of rushing water, people laughing, kids screaming, and that slow click... click... click... as another raft climbs toward the top. It's like listening to a soundtrack that says, "Somebody's about to get soaked!" As we're climbing, everyone in our raft is pretending to be brave. Then the spinning starts. The turning. The bouncing. Another turn. Another drop. Another spin. By this point, you're just holding on and hoping the raft picks someone else to get drenched. Spoiler alert: The raft doesn't care. You hit the bottom, water explodes everywhere, the cannons start firing, people on the bridge are laughing while they're trying to soak you even more, and suddenly nobody is dry anymore. It's absolute chaos... the fun kind. The best part of the whole day wasn't even getting soaked. Before we got on, my son wasn't sure he wanted to ride it. After we climbed off, he looked at me and said, "Dad, thank you for taking me on the best ride in all of California Adventure." Then he thanked me again... and again... and again. Those words meant more to me than he'll probably ever know. Sometimes the best memories aren't the drops or the splashes--they're hearing your kid tell you that you were right. The ride was clean, the Cast Members were friendly, and the whole atmosphere was full of laughter from beginning to end. If it's hot outside, don't think twice. You're either getting soaked... or wishing you had.

Grizzly River Run is one of my favorite ride's in Disney's California Adventure. I love water…read morerides. Grizzly River Run is an whitewater rafting ride located in the Disney California Adventure Park's Grizzly Peak area of the Disneyland Resort. When Disney California Adventure opened in 2001, Grizzly River Run was also one of the original rides! Grizzly River Run is themed like a giant, bear shaped mountain called Grizzly Peak that is inspired by California's state and national parks and represents the natural beauty of the forest in Northern California, featuring pine tree stands, rocky mountains, and the sound of running water. You board large round rafts that can be used for groups of up to eight people, and as they float through an area with strong currents on the ride! The rafts twist and turn in unpredictable directions. During this twisting journey, the rafts send you floating through waters, mist filled caves, and sometimes sudden drop offs. I did speak with the cast member and the large drop is about as large as the Pirates of the Caribbean. The moment when the raft plunges into the water during the latter part of the trip is fun, especially due to the amount of splashing the raft receives from the water, which often results in some of the riders getting wet. Sometimes I get drenched and other times, I barely get wet. Due to the design of the raft, which the raft rotates, you'll have a unique ride experience each time you ride Grizzly River Run! The ride is different during the day and night. During the evening hours you can see all of the beautiful Disney California Adventure lights which is stunning! It's great to ride this ride at night during the summer hours! This is a must ride if you're visiting during the summer. If you don't like being cold though, I'd recommend avoiding this one during the fall and early spring months.

It's…read morea classic Fantasyland staple for a reason, and I don't think any visit to the parks would be complete without a spin in the cute little flying elephants. The lines here can get very long, especially during the busier times of day. Go either first thing in the morning at rope drop or later in the evening for a shorter wait time. Kids are drawn to this ride because it's just super cute and colorful, and the idea of piloting your very own Dumbo is irresistible no matter your age. Each ride vehicle holds up to two adults but Pooh sized visitors may want to ask for their own Dumbo. There's a seat belt that you strap on yourself, and the Dumbos have an open door on the side so make sure you seat any kids towards the inside rather than the outside of the ride vehicle. I'm not a fan of heights, but the ride doesn't go very far up so I am able to ride it. I like that you can control how high or low your Dumbo flies (but at the end, all of the cars are sent to the top and the highest point, and you can't control that so be aware if you are super afraid of heights). The ride is so fun and basic, it just spins around in a circle while you make your Dumbo fly higher or lower and enjoy the views of Fantasyland and the castle in the background. This is a classic Disneyland attraction that is well worth your time.
