Does the lazy river go in a continuous loop? The one at Kalahari starts and ends truth the wave pool. Trying to find the best indoor lazy river.
@LovenestersКүн бұрын
I believe so but I am not posative and can't find the answer for you on the website. There isn't a wave pool at Mt Olympus. The lazy river does not go all around the indoor water park. It is just on about 1/4 of the water park. It was long enough for us for a quick break but I feel like Kalahari's may be longer.

Myself, in Québec, I still use a 1965 Snow-Cruiser made by OMC. It was bought by my father for 400$ in 1965. Still works fine with very little maintenance. Except for changing the track the first year in 66, nothing major had to be done on it. Bearings here and there, suspension rubber, broken skis, broken metal traverse on track. Also run many hours with 5 gallons of gas. Another thing, you change as many drive belt in sixty years as you would change them on 1965 Bombardier in three weeks. Just today, I have been using it for 3 hours pulling a sled with grandchilds

I worked at a dealership that sold Raiders in 1973. Three trim levels: Hawk, Eagle and Double Eagle. Canadian Curtiss Wright engines, 340 or 440 CC. They were pretty quick, but sitting flat on your butt with a thin cushion for a seat and minimal suspension travel, (as they all had) made for some painful jolts on a rough trail. Sure wish I had kept one for myself!

In the 70s we had 2 Arctic Cats. A 295 cc Lynx and a 303 cc Panther with a wankel engine. We had a long sleigh for the Panther that was shaped like a dog sled so you could stand on the back and ride when the sled was full. Neighbours had one of those Husky's and my Uncle had a double track Ski-Doo Alpine. We lived in NE Ontario and spent a lot of time in the bush. Thanks!
