Hats flying. People screaming. Water splattering. All sounds like the making of a pretty good ride, eh? Well, that is what Coal Cracker is. Basically, it is your typical flume ride with a fairly good splash landing. However, I have some good memories from this. On a family trip to the park back in the early 90s, my uncle was wearing one of my cousins Colorado Rockies hats while on this ride. Needless to say, on about our third go around on this ride, it took flight while our flume was charging down the drop. It could have been saved if it werent for my mom (who is scared of heights) with her face planted into the back of my cousin in front of her, and me who could have caught it if I wasnt like 6 inches tall at the time. So later that night my cousin got a hat from my uncle (a 49s hat), about 59 throws and 30 dollars later at the football toss game. Anyway, the ride is a lot of fun. It is a fairly simple flume ride that takes you around through some trees and some things like that. It is a good time and you have a pretty good chance of getting wet. Just remember though, make sure your fitted hat is nice and snug.
