Nature's Wonderland construction, February 1960



This February 1960 photo captures the construction of a soon-to-be-upgraded Nature's Wonderland attraction. The grand opening was only a few months away. Rainbow Ridge existed before this remodel, but it would appear that the town was expanding. It also appears that the five year old buildings were getting a little freshening up in the process.

Below, you can see two photos from approximately the same angle, showing you the finished product and how Rainbow Ridge turned out. First up is from August 1962...



Followed by September 1963:
