Step into the Crackaxle Canyon, the home of The Rattler, but watch out, this ride bites. One of the largest most venomous wooden roller coasters on the planet. It's huge! This ride's got some bite. This wooden roller coaster climbs up high then plunges back down in the quarry, across the canyon once again to the top of the cliff into a turning triple helix, back down the rock cliff face and through the cliff wall by means of a tunnel to return finally to the station. The Rattler is a thrilling ride!
