This looks awesome! Sounds like more or less a refresh of Treetop Trails, but maybe with some new habitats and theming?

I’m all for this, but it’s not out of line to question how long this ends up lasting before maintenance quality falls for some of these interactive effects. Seaworld had a bad reputation.

Is this not just them disguising maintaining Jungala as a new attraction? Like this just looks like them executing on all the deferred maintenance.

Bingo. While I appreciate the effort, calling it ALL-NEW is a bit disingenuous.

If you put a pigeon in an eagle costume it’s still a pigeon.

Not to be cynical, but this is just a simple refurb of what was previously there and renaming it to offer something "new" this year.

Not really sure what they’re doing with the old Jungala Flyers station, is it becoming a look out area?
Also kinda funny that there is already a media event considering the area hasn’t gotten an ounce of work done yet besides what has sat sbno for 5 years

The one thing that's kept SW/BGT alive is their impressive marketing programs and media relations.

So as someone who hasn't been to BGT since 2019, correct me if I'm wrong here...

Jungala never reopens from COVID, is essentially left abandoned, and now is being revived as this year's "new" attraction (with a different name slapped on it)?

Jungala as an area of the park has stayed open (Chick-Fil-A, Tiger Trail/Lodge, RC Boars/Cars) But the Tree Top Trails area located inside Jungala did exactly that. Slightly more theming but essentially the same area
