Magic Kingdom: Frontierland


Brer Rabbit atop a sign

Frontierland is the old West brought back to life as a wonderful river flows along its dusty banks lined with tumbleweeds, rattlesnakes and cactus. On the horizon, breathtaking buttes and natural rock formations form valleys and plateaus that most surely play home to hot mineral geysers and rainbow-filled caverns far below the earth. Once upon a time, this was a booming mining community, its water rich with gold. Families stroll along the wooden planks of the small town past saloons and a host of supply stores as the sheriff keeps the peace. In a place like Frontierland however, that's not a difficult job. It's easy to see just how rewarding - and simple life was, once upon a time in this town that time forgot. One might just sit a spell and sip slowly on a chilled sarsaparilla and listen to the lonely sounds of a harmonica being played across the river in a log cabin or the music of country bears mingling and moving about under the wild Western sky.
