Log Jammer is a log flume ride at Kennywood amusement park in West Mifflin, Pennsylvania, United States. It opened in 1975 and was manufactured by Arrow Dynamics. It is one of three water rides at Kennywood, the other two being Pittsburgh Plunge and Raging Rapids.

The ride

Log Jammer travels through the wooded areas of Kennywood. It was the park's first million-dollar ride. The ride includes two lift hills, a 27-foot spillway drop and a 53-foot drop down the final chute.[1] One of the ride's notable features is a short uphill section after the first drop.
