Six Flags: The Great Escape in the Lake George area reopened to guests this summer.

After the last year and a half, New Yorkers needed an escape and there's nothing better than a theme park. They have a way of transporting people to another world and another time, where one can be a kid again.

The Great Escape offers excitement for all ages, from Grease Lightning to the Comet to the all-new Adirondack Outlaw, the park's latest addition. The extreme thrill ride rotates riders on a 360-degree arm at speeds of up to 50 miles per hour, while spinning and flipping.
