American Plunge

Flume ride
Minimum height to ride: 34 inches

The American Plunge is an Arrow log flume with a few animatronic set pieces and a long, dark tunnel along the way (the tunnel used to be nicely themed, now, sadly, it is just a dark tunnel). The finale is the requisite 50-foot plunge to a splashdown.

American Plunge is a log flume ride that traverses a somewhat unique pitch black tunnel before emerging to a lift hill and subsequent dive. The end result offers a fun experience with a steeper drop and more thrills than most rides of this type. While not anywhere up to the level of a Splash Mountain or Ripsaw Falls, this flume ride is a bit better than average. - James Rao
