I would hate to tell you that going later would work on your particular day and then be wrong. Yesterday, specifically, we probably could have gone much later and still gotten the time we wanted. But this may not be the case every day. We didn’t want to chance it so we got up at 5:15, were through bag check and cued up by 6:35, and were at the outpost at 6:51 since they opened EMH at 6:45. We only saw four families heading to the outpost with us (the rest of the crowd took a bee line to Toy Story) so our kids were signed up by 7:00. We then rode Alien Saucers once and Midway Mania 4 times by 8:00 park opening. My wrist still is sore from that.
