The structure has been completed for some time now on The Claw, though work still goes on to get it ready for testing.
Wild West Falls is undergoing maintenance August 2-22.
The time is also being used to touch up other sections of the ride.
The ride has been operating for the past six months since the incident, though with minimal theming.
In this time, focus will be on restoring the upper sections of the ride where theming was destroyed in a fire last December.
The two tracks meet up towards the bottom again where they hit the final straight together, parallel.
The lawn mowing system at Jamberoo consists mostly of deer. They're all around the toboggan tracks.
The beginners track meanders down the pleasant green hills synonymous with this part of NSW.
Unlike most toboggans, this one is bolted together rather than welded. This makes for a more exciting ride, though not as smooth.
The tunnel.
Towards the bottom of the advanced track is a tunnel.

Though it is quite long, this ride uses centrifugal brakes that limit the speed riders can achieve.
The advanced track.

The right track is for beginners, the left being is the advanced track, which is 200m longer.
The top of the mountain, where riders begin their winding journey.
