Also included in the attraction is the Mountain Train Ride a 1+1⁄2-mile (2.4 km) 20 in (508 mm) narrow gauge built in a switchback layout along the side of a steep hill.
Due to repeated mudslides obstructing the road, US 101 was realigned in 2009 to the Confusion Hill Bridges, bypassing the attraction.
[1] In August 2016, Alex Hirsch, creator of the television series Gravity Falls, installed a statue of series antagonist Bill Cipher at Confusion Hill[2][3] after it was removed from its initial home of Reedsport, Oregon, following a global scavenger hunt to locate the statue, known as the Cipher Hunt.
[4] In 2020, Confusion Hill faced closure due to financial hurdles brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic.
A GoFundMe was set up and with help from Hirsch and the Gravity Falls fanbase, the target goal was raised and exceeded.
