Grizzly is a wooden roller coaster located at California's Great America in Santa Clara, California, USA. The ride was designed by Curtis D. Summers and opened in 1986. It is located in the Action Zone area of the park. Grizzly at Kings Dominion in Doswell, Virginia, USA has a similar though mirrored version of the layout. It isn't a clone though, since there are too many small differences in elements.
