Outlaw Run at RCDB

Development of an early concept began in 2009, and Outlaw Run was officially announced in August 2012. Rocky Mountain Construction was selected as the manufacturer after their proposal met Silver Dollar City's concerns over available space and budget restraints. Outlaw Run opened to a positive reception on March 15, 2013.
