Big Dipper (Geauga Lake)

Big Dipper is a wooden roller coaster at Geauga Lake amusement park in Bainbridge Township, Ohio. Built in 1925, the Big Dipper is an ACE Coaster Classic and an ACE Coaster Landmark. However, the award was never officially presented to the park. Until September 2007, it was the oldest operating wooden coaster in Ohio, and the 7th oldest operating roller coaster in the USA (12th oldest in the world). Big Dipper underwent major renovations in 1980. It has been named "Big Dipper" since 1969, before which it was named Clipper and Sky Rocket.

Famous quotes containing the word big:

    What did it matter where you lay once you were dead? In a dirty sump or in a marble tower on top of a high hill? You were dead, you were sleeping the big sleep, you were not bothered by things like that. Oil and water were the same as wind and air to you.
    Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
