The ride is unusual as it has an elevator to raise the cars to the top of the track as opposed to the more traditional lift-hill.

CCI constructed new cage-enclosed cars due to the proximity between riders and the themed 'mountain' sections of the ride.

The ride operator then dispatches the train, which makes a right hand turn into a Trim brake, before entering the elevator lift.

The train then briefly enters the mountain, making a left hand turn and quickly exiting again.

The car goes through a couple airtime hills before flying around an inner banked turnaround that will also send riders out of their seats.

during the midcourse, the train comes to a complete stop, and a short show scene plays in which a character dubbed 'Dynamite Willie' yells "Fire in the hole!"

After the midcourse, the train falls into a double-down and then into a sharp right-hand turn, momentarily bringing riders outside the mountain, before going right back in.

The train then rolls up into a couple show scenes of an abandoned mineshaft, and then a bear that came from the original Superstition Mountain Mine Ride.

The car passes through a circular tunnel left from the old Mine Ride, before hitting a magnet brake that slows the train down so it can make a very sharp inner-banked turnaround.

In the offseason of 2002, the ride was updated to include more features and upgrades, such as new animatronics, props, and even plumbing for a waterfall.
