The past few months, Hades has had a sign about 1/2 way through the queue that says, “Hades is extremely rough today. Please keep both hands on the bars” or something like that.

worst wooden roller coaster I’ve ever ridden. I’m sorry but a wooden roller coaster should not be going that fast, i didn’t feel safe at all. It was crazy I’ve never felt sick on a roller coaster until I rode Hades and i couldn’t even enjoy it because I was too worried about hanging on and holding my daughter. I’m more of a steel coaster fan. But its a popular coaster cause the line is always very long every time I visit Mt Olympus so I’m glad others enjoy it. Just not for me or my daughter.

I recommend sittin in the front even if there is a long line because of 1. Great view 2. A lot less bumpy than the back. Hope I helped

Awesome coaster Zeus seems like nothing compared to this. The only thing that could make it better is if it went upside down.

Hi. I just discovered your site while looking for coaster rumors. Nice blog. On yesterday, August 30, 2011, I took my first trip to Wisconsin Dells and Mt. Olympus. Hades is visually stunning, but inflicts bodily harm. I’m no coaster newbie, and can deal with some pain. But, Hades is pretty rough. What is really sad about the park is that Hades is much more tolerable than Zeus (terrible pain) and Cyclops. It seems the park has a colletion of body slammers. It’s like WWE. I wish I could have ridden Hades when it premiered in 2005. It must have been incredible. But, on yesterday, I kept wishing that Rocky Mountain Construction could get a hold of it.

As far as the ride ops are concerned, the young lady was just spectacular and really nice to me. The older man in dirty nike tennis shoes had the charm of a herpes blister.

Rode this ride on 8-26-2011. My brain hurt from this ride. I don’t mean I got a headache, my brain hurt during and after the ride from getting rattled. It has been three days and my neck is still sore. I can’t believe this ride is allowed to operate. I’m just glad I rode it by myself and didn’t put my wife and kids on this ride.

This wasn’t that bad. We went yesterday, and the Pegasus and Cyclops were harder on us than Zeus or Hades. The only problem with Hades was the rough return, where they have you stop too quick the first time, then feel the need to jerk you two more times to abrupt stops before letting you out.

The initial drop and the ascent to the hill is almost better than the rest of the coaster, but that’s insane on the 90 degree ride on the wall! I knew I was resting on the person next to me, but I didn’t think I was literally on top!

Agreed. I pity the young kids riding this over and over. They have no idea how this will affect their body down the road!

Loved the speed and thrill but it was the first and LAST time I will ride it.

I especially like how Hades gets off to wild start as soon as you leave the terminal. Yea, it beats the snot out of you at the end, so if you should avoid it if you break easily.

Sorry, I misread what 2CoasterCrazy wrote and thought he meant: “Journey to Atlantis”
