Six Flags Great America Confirms Camp Cartoon Ride Removals to Make Way for Expansion

The park says details on enhancements will be shared closer to the April 25 season opening.

Overview

  • WGN SkyCam 9 aerial footage shows the Yukon Territory’s Camp Cartoon area cleared to bare ground with the Sprocket Rockets kids’ coaster still standing.
  • A Six Flags spokesperson confirmed to NBC Chicago that two attractions in Camp Cartoon were removed to support future expansion, with Sprocket Rockets remaining in operation.
  • Reports based on the aerial footage indicate the Crazy Bus and Yahoo River rides are gone, and the Go Kart track at the opposite end of Yukon Territory has also been removed.
  • Offseason work is underway elsewhere in the park, including track maintenance on the American Eagle wooden coaster and replacement of Raging Bull’s station staircase.
  • The clearance comes ahead of the park’s 50th anniversary season beginning April 25, with prior company messaging hinting at a new kids area and broader investment, though specific redevelopment plans have not been announced.
