The Gold Rusher Rollercoaster - American Coaster Enthusiasts Coaster Con 42 at Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia, California

I stated that there were three perfect Arrow Dynamics rides right by each other.  There was Ninja and Jet Stream.  The third is the oldest coaster at Six Flags Magic Mountain: Gold Rusher.

Along with the Magic Flyer (which no one over 54 inches tall can ride) Gold Rusher is one of the parks two remaining original coasters.

Gold Rusher starts out by taking you up the hillside before dropping you down the other side.

On the other side of Samurai Summit you dive down the hillside before spiraling around to Gold Rusher's second lift hill.
