Changes
The rock formations on Chick-A-Pill Hill were first sculpted and then reinforced with rebar, wire mesh and sprayable concrete. When completed, the hill stood 87 feet tall and housed caves, swamps, and bayous. Also built was a 950,000 gallon water reservoir which supplies water for the attraction.
Splash Mountain (like Thunder Mountain before it) was designed to be controlled by computers. There are two main ride control computers which monitor the attraction. If the two computers don't both agree on the millions of the commands being sent to the ride, they will stop the ride automatically. Splash Mountain was also built with an infra-red intrusion system that alerts cast members if somebody steps outside of their log. When completed, Splash Mountain took up 9.2 acres of land, including 2,600 feet of track <ref name= "Jack1"/>. Splash Mountain began its soft openings on July 2717, 1992 and it was officially dedicated October 2nd <ref name= "Korkis"/>.
In May 2018, a new preshow video was added to Splash Mountain's queue <ref> https://wdwnt.com/2018/05/photo-report-the-magic-kingdom-5-9-18-infinity-war-tron-ducktales-cosmic-rays-main-street-enhancements-etc/ </ref>.
