The canyon walls are perfect for underground building. Similar to Whispering Cliffs, try to build the stations in the cliff face and the coasters can then travel between the walls and canyon itself. It should have a great enhancing effect on excitement ratings.

Warning: The canyon's obstructed views can make building and managing rides challenging.

Difficulty 5/10.

The setup for the park seems simple enough, but you have one big problem: the huge lake behind the dam. Once you reach far enough into it, the depth becomes too great to build rides or even footpaths on, so keep an eye on your cost and surroundings. Also, the terrain is less than perfect for building flat rides, so choose one area to modify and develop that, rather than spend endless funds on terraforming.

Your starting ride selection is excellent, quite frankly, so use it to gain a quick boost of guests. Also, underground ride building is ideal here, so try out a few ideas and see what works. 1,400 guests in 3 years, even from scratch, should be no problem here.

Difficulty: 5/10.
