Snake River Falls is a shoot-the-chutes water boat attraction designed by Arrow Dynamics located at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio. The attraction is loosely based on a wood packing company. Snake River Falls is one of two water rides at Cedar Point, the other being Thunder Canyon. When opened, Snake River Falls was the tallest, fastest and steepest water ride in the world. Guests board flat bottom, 20-passenger boats that advance directly onto the lift hill. Upon reaching the top of the hill, the boats make a u-turn to the left then make an 80 feet, 40 mph splashdown to the bottom. There is a bridge at the bottom of the hill directly over the ride track allowing guests to get splashed when a boat hits the water. Snake River Falls was originally supposed to feature an artificial mountain underneath the ride but these plans were scrapped. From the ride's opening in 1993 until the 2012 season, Snake River Falls was sponsored by Pepsi. After Cedar Point switched to Coca-Cola in 2013, the ride now operates without a sponsor.
