Expedition Everest
Inside the mountain, riders encounter a 25-foot tall Yeti. The Yeti is the fastest and most powerful audio-animatronic
figure Disney has ever built. It takes a swipe at trains as they pass by.
In the summer of 2008, the Yeti was deactivated. It was very dimly lit in order to hide its immobility. It was rumored that its foundation had issues that prevented it from operating. Since it has been stationary for a year, it must not be a simple fix.
