We saw logs testing on Tiana’s Bayou Adventure at Disneyland this week while construction continues.
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure Construction
Scaffolding remains up around the entrance to Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, which is now yellow and green. It’s a similar color scheme to the round barn in the Tiana’s Bayou Adventure queue at Magic Kingdom. The building was previously brown when the ride was Splash Mountain.
Some new light fixtures are also visible around the main entrance. Some are still covered in plastic.
Work continues on the ride’s millhouse, which got new roofing. Green moss details have been added over some of the new shingles.
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure Testing
From the Mark Twain Riverboat, we saw logs dropping down the mountain (which is a salt mine in the Tiana’s Bayou Adventure story).
No water was running down the drop but it was in the flume at the bottom of the attraction.
We got a good view of logs running through this section of the flume. The logs are the same vehicles Splash Mountain used, but with the Br’er Rabbit carving removed from the front.
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is scheduled to open on November 15, 2024. As part of the attraction’s creation, Critter Country was renamed Bayou Country. The Briar Patch and part of Pooh Corner will become Tiana’s Bayou Adventure gift shops Louis’ Critter Club and Ray’s Berets. The land’s Hungry Bear Restaurant is also becoming the Country Bear-themed Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree.
