Each bucket for the sakiya is attached to a rope mechanism with a rod. As the Sakiya rotates, water lifts and spills into this area.
Leaves, weathered details, and bamboo pipes added to the treehouse

Sakiya isn’t the only new detail. Here, more real and fake leaves are added to the treehouse and its surroundings to create the effect of a living treehouse. You can also see that more plumbing has been added on top of the treehouse. As seen in the concept art below, much of this piping is functional and carries water to various parts of the attraction.

Some of the scaffolding still remains, but sections of the visitor walkway have been completed as well, such as this one on the left.

The bamboo details and fabric ties that appear to secure this post look new and finished.
The treehouse and crow’s nest feature small details such as barrels with storm drains flowing underneath and tied with rope. Some of these details from previous trips have been painted or covered (such as the blue water pipes resembling bamboo pipes). We noticed that there was another pipe running along the length of the roof. This pipe is connected with a canvas elbow, directing water away from the natural fiber roof and into a still hidden (or not yet installed) water wheel that can be seen in the concept art. The Adventureland treehouse is below.
