    Man its so weird to see that place abandoned. I only went there once when i was a teenager back in the late 90s with my family. I really miss going to the Smoky Mountains, It's the most beautiful place ive ever been. I got a pic taken with some cowboy actors back then but sadly i don't have the picture anymore. Thank you for sharing your adventure there.

    Although hating the trespassing, I do appreciate how respectful you were. This was the first amusement park that I worked at. It was so much fun. I used to attend the church service every Sunday. It is heart breaking to see how the trespassers have destroyed such a beautiful place.

    3:03 I rode that rollercoaster when I was a little kid. It was scary to me then as it went out over the edge of the cliff. They also had western gun fights in the street that was very convincing to my young mind. When I attended, I thought it was called GHOST CITY MOUNTAIN.

    I was probably 10 when we went there around 1978. The place was very cool to me as a kid, and that was the first roller coaster I ever rode,and i remember it wrecked my nerves. We saw shootouts in the streets and loved riding the chairlift,although by today's standards, it was probably not up to code. It's a shame it's not still open for people to enjoy.

  • @mcresq65

    Generally speaking, i don't think this "Dancer" answers comments on this video. Now although this video hit RUclips i think in sometime January '24, the video itself seems to be well older, and i just have an odd feeling of maybe summer-ish '22. I was up in late october of '23 and when the foliage is down, its a hellofalot easier to make your way up the hill from the bottom. I noted evidence of deterioration when i was up there that isn't in this video, so i feel that it was shot before i was up there. As for the cameras, they were for use while the place was in operation. They aren't functional at present. There are no "security" cameras monitoring the top. Also he may have more video that wasn't posted. There's more to see up there than he showed. In this video tho, its very plain to see how the kudzu is taking over everything.

    • @Destinytclay

      Where did you park that’s what I’m wondering. I also heard the cameras only work at the town at the top and no at the coaster

    • @mcresq65
      @mcresq65 5 месяцев назад

  • @Howrider65
    @Howrider65 6 месяцев назад +2

    Sad how it closed the water line going up there failed and the old lady that ran the place could not afford to fix it up. It needed way to much work most all of the rides needed an overhaul. And she also could not afford security, so it was vandalized many times. What an awful area to think stupid kids would go up there and trash the place.

  • @highdynamic4077
    @highdynamic4077 9 месяцев назад +2

    Beautiful environment and good commentary. One thing I'm wondering though is what camera and mic setup do you use? As with some other people on RUclips, the audio quality is great, and with like no wind noise (yeah it was very calm on the day of this video, but even in other videos the audio is so good). Maybe newer GoPros can record sound so crisp and without much environmental noise, I don't know...

  • @gethigheatastar
    @gethigheatastar 8 месяцев назад +1

    How did you not show the tower?!?! What dude?!! There's a whole area up top that you missed. Plus the houses off to the side literally had bullets and a blood stained mattress last time I was there.
    Plus you should've climbed the roller coaster! Damn man, this is weak sauce , does the spot no justice.
    Has NOT been looted either. The whole sound system is still in throughout the park there's like 45 speakers we counted

    I first went to Ghost Town back in 1996 or 1997. My dad forced me to go and o really didn’t want to. About the only thing I remember well is the chair lift. When you climbed the chair lift tower and said those look like big cameras, I think you’re right. When I went they would take your picture on the way up the mountain and give you the option to buy a color photo at the top. Just thought I would add my 2 cents. Thanks for the video.

  • @cassieyork1

    The park's biggest failure to re-open even after sales of the land, has been due to a Mudslide that occurred, as well as vandalism of buildings, and water pressure problems, in 2015 The park was going to re-open for the 2016 season, but that did not happen due to the amount of repairs to the coasters and rides, the park did not open and was offered for sale again.
    2018 another attempt, the land was sold, investors however bailed on the project. 2019 a plan for the reopining for spring, but as of July 2019 the park was sold again...new investors and 2021 - owners planned to spend $200 Million to revitalize the park...COVID-19 came and well we know...2022 various lawsuits have been filed...July 28, 2023, a law suite was filed to determine the fate, ownership of the park was to be determined
