Nice find and shots! Wish we had abandoned stuff like that around where I live. It's hard to believe all that ride equipment would be left but the pictures are the proof. What a shame.

Thanks, y'all! Rinz, it was pouring down rain the whole time...climbing in the rain with expensive camera probably wasn't the best idea.

Virtually all of the rides were destroyed beyond salvage because they sat in brackish water for weeks after Hurricane Katrina. If you make it out to the area, you'll see why...Six Flags NOLA was basically built in a swamp near Lake Pontchartrain, which backed up and flooded the whole 9th ward with salt water.


The park two weeks after Katrina:
