After Opryland closed down in 1997 Six Flags bought Canyon Blaster and a few other rides. It sat north of Indianapolis at the remains of the Old Indiana Fun park which was the Six Flags bone yard at the time before being moved to The Great Escape in 2003.

Canyon Blaster has kind of an interesting layout. There are no big drops but there are plenty of turns with one massive helix after the big lift.
