About the Ride Info Box

River Rapids was log flume water ride in Iowa Farm. It opened in 1974 and operated until 2015. It was replaced by the Monster, which opened in 2016.

On-ride photos were added in 2005.

Trivia

According to the park, the company that built this ride only built two. Adventureland bought the second one to use for spare parts.

Inconsistencies

  • Sign: River Rapids
  • Guide Map:
  • In-Park Map Signs: RIVER RAPIDS
  • Website: Log Ride or Log Flume

This one is no longer in the park, but in 2016 there were still a few references to it on the website. It clearly had a real name, but I don't fault folks for just calling it the log ride. I don't think the flume was very river-like, anyway.
