At the top, there was a slight drop-off the chain as the boat heads toward the drop. An animatronic "falling rock" teetered close to the boat. This area was once filled with an extremely dense layer of mist, to obscure riders' vision of what lies ahead. At this point, the Canyon Blaster was mere feet above the heads of Rim Runner passengers. Another set of conveyor belts positioned the boat for its final plunge, an 80-foot camelback drop to a wet conclusion. A final right-hand turn placed the boat at the final set of conveyor belts that lifted the boat out of the water and back into the station.
