Disney4me Posted August 16 Report Posted August 16 On the “Horizons: A Carousel of Progress” stage at D23: The Ultimate Fan Event presented by Visa, Neil Patrick Harris was interrupted by Thomas Mazloum, Chairman, Disney Experiences. It was time for an announcement big enough to shake a mountain to its core: “We’re bringing the Yeti back to life inside Expedition Everest at Disney’s Animal Kingdom!” Cheers rocked the crowd, louder than the screech of a legendary beast. As beasts of legend are soothed with song, Gloria Gaynor gave our long-dancing yeti an epic send-off. She paid tribute to our loveable Yeti as only she could, performing her 1978 disco hit, “I Will Survive.” Expedition Everest at Animal Kingdom Nestled inside Disney’s Animal Kingdom, a majestic (and nearly 200-foot) Forbidden Mountain houses a legendary secret. From the moment you enter the queue, the lore of the yeti comes alive, as you peruse a trailside museum featuring evidence of campground attacks, sketches of sightings, and even a footprint mold of a giant yeti foot. Once you’ve boarded an old tea train car and climbed the rocky peaks, you’ll notice a few more obvious signs of the mysterious guardian of the mountain during the high-speed ride, including a few torn train tracks. Inspired by the northwest face of Mount Everest and geological elements found in Tibet and Nepal, Expedition Everest is the perfect hideout for even the most discerning yeti. Stay tuned to Disney Parks Blog. We’ll have all the latest news on this star of the Himalayas.
