Timber Terror is a wooden roller coaster located at Silverwood Theme Park. Originally, the ride had been called Grizzly, but the park had to change the name to Timber Terror to avoid confusion with wooden roller coasters of the same name at California's Great America and Kings Dominion. Rocky Mountain Construction, an Idaho-based manufacturing firm, assisted with the construction of the ride.[1]

On September 26, 2010, Timber Terror soft opened to the public with a reversed train as part of the park's annual Scarywood Haunted Nights event. The train received new headrests as part of the transformation.
