Lakemont Park Altoona, Pennsylvania October 1999 Page Ten
Here's one thing
that I noticed about the Skyliner and other John Allen coasters he puts
in flat sections! I don't get it.
Other than the Skyliner and Leap The Dips Lakemont Park has three other coasters. The first one is the Toboggan. I used to see these rides a lot in the 1970's at traveling carnivals but it's rare to see them anymore. If you're claustrophobic don't ride as the cars are tiny and you're fully enclosed. Also look out for the dip at the bottom. It's a doozey!
Lakemont's other adult coaster is the Mad Mouse. Watch out because the mouse is really mad. The top half is pretty fun with it's turns but the second half has a bunch of dips that are pretty rough. With the Skyliner
and the historic Leap The Dips Lakemont Park is definitely a place to
visit on your coaster trips. All pictures on this site have been taken by my wife Carrie or myself. Please do not use without permission but ask and chances are I'll give it to you. Copyright 1999 - 2018
