Thunderhawk

Geagua Lake had eight roller coasters when the park closed in 2007.  Three of the coasters, including this one, were moved to Cedar Fair parks and one was sold to a foreign park.  Three coasters were scrapped, and the Big Dipper has been rotting in place for the last six years, a tragic loss since it is one of the classic 1920s coasters designed by the coaster genius John Miller.
