Just wanted to see what everyones favorite 'mountain" in WDW was!

Mine for sure... is Splash Mountain! The fact that it's 12 minutes long is one of my favorite things about it. You wait all that time in line for the other mountains and they are less then a minute long!!

I voted EE. It is an unusual ride and it is my kids' favorite and I love to see their smiles when we get off and get right back on!

Although I thoroughly enjoy EE, Splash still has to be my favorite mountain.

That was seriously hard to answer. I had do think about which would make me the angriest if it were closed when I visited. So I said splash ( that was closed my last trip). :(

I voted for EE but really I like them all. I could have voted for any of them they all have something fun about them. So I voted for EE because it is newer and they don't have it at any other park. :mickey:

I like them all as well, but since I had to narrow it down to one....

I really like Splash as a ride, but I HATE getting wet.

I like how fast Space is and that feeling of flying, but a little jerky and way too short.

Love BTMRR, especially sitting in the back! :)

But...
I went with EE love the Gs and the going backwards is such a different expirience.

I vote Space mountain. Though I have never been on Everest. I was pregnant when it opened.

You should definitely do EE when you get a chance. :mickey:

I went with Big Thunder, it's short but I still love that ride. EE makes me a little :sick: and takes me a bit to get back down to the ground after riding that. Space Mountain is cool but my back hates me after riding it. And Splash is fun but out of our trips I only got to ride it once, that was this year, because it's always closed when we go :( Where with BTMR we ride it several times a trip :D

Tough choice, but went with EE. Great queue and just a fun attraction.

They're all good, but I have an affinity for water rides, especially if they don't actually get you wet.
That, combined with the great storyline, is why I love Splash Mountain the best.

I will always have a special feeling of nostalgia for Space Mountain though, because it was my very first ride in all of WDW! :cloud9:

I voted for Splash Mountain, but it wasn't easy to come to that decision. The 4 "mountains" are all in my top 5 favorite rides at WDW. However, when I looked at the reasons why I liked each ride, Splash won out.

glad I came to the rescue of my favorite mountain! Space Mountain one of my all time faves...I love the ride in the dark, I love the music, I love the building, and I love that you get to ride through it with the TTA. It's a little rough at times, but it's a rush!

Same here so I voted for it. However, EE is just way fun and I would have voted for it otherwise.

EE, even with disco Yetti. The view from the top of that ride, cannot be beat.

Not only my favorite "mountain" at WDW, but my overall favorite attraction at WDW and my favorite theme park attraction anywhere in the rest of the real world. :woohoo:

Splash Mountain without a doubt. What can I say I like any ride that has water at WDW! Plus I just love the story!

OMG Such a hard choice. Like so many others, I love them ALL
But for now, will go with EE :)
Hopefully that will change back to Splash after the refurb next year...I hope they fix all the fountains-makes me mad that so much on the ride isn't working.

I love EE but I voted for splash mountain. That ride just makes me happy!! I love the smell of the water...sounds weird and my mom says it smells musty but I love it! Love the theming inside the ride..adorable! :mickey3:

Splash Mt is the perfect ride. It's great in that it tells a fantastic story, it's not just 90 second long, it has a drop that kids and adults love, and the music is the best theme of the whole park. And that's saying something.

, it's not just 90 second long,.

I think the time the ride takes is part of the appeal. Nothing like going away for a little while ago, even when you've gone away for awhile by going to WDW.

I still voted for Space Mountain..:D

I was shocked at the poll results! Definitely didn't think Space would be in last! That being said, I actually voted for Space. I love them all, but Space is a classic. It was down to Splash and Space, but we rode Space 4 times on our last trip a few weeks ago, and I forgot how great it was!

Also, a few weeks ago was the first time we had ridden BTMRR in YEARS... And holy cow, it's more fun now than I ever remember it being! :thumbsup:

BTM is great,EE is good,it was alot better when the yeti worked.I feel fortunate to have seen him in "A" mode a few times.
So it came down to SM or SM,tough choice so I went with SM for old times sake.
Love them all !!:thumbsup:

Tough call! Space has seniority, and special memories...but all four spark special memories..love the view from EE...and would probably have voted that way, but for the disappointment of the Yeti. And love the special view of the fireworks from Splash...but adding up view, theme, and sheer pleasure of the whole ride, and sharing it with DW, DK's, and DGK's over the years, BTMRR gets my vote.

EE is fast and unusual with it's backward spiral. My number two pick is Splash for it's theming and the drop at the end.

Least favorite is Space Mountain - I love the version at Disneyland, but the WDW ride is way too rough for me.

Splash - simply for the best drop in WDW.

Easily Splash Mountain for me, It's been my favorite ride in WDW since the first time I rode it. I'm very shocked to see Space Mountain last though, I figured Big Thunder Mountain would be in last.

For me, there is no "real" favorite. I was there and road each the year they opened. I stood in Space Mountain lines that snaked back and forth all the way out to Tomorrow Land Terrace almost (2+ hours). I stood in lines for BTMRR that went all the way back to PotC almost (3 hours). Longest I waited for Splash was about 40 minutes. Longest for EE was about 15.

Each has their own appeal. I love them all. The older ones for nostalgia.

I love all 4 rides but this post hit the nail on the head why I voted for splash mountain

I get to try EE for the first time on my trip in December. Last time we were at WDW, they were sill building that mountain.

I've rode Splash, Space and Big Thunder, but two trips ago when I was giong to ride EE fast passes were out and there was a 2 hour wait. Let's just say that did not happen that day. Out of the three I have had the pleasure of loving, Splash is my favourite for sure!

I LIKE ALL The Mountains at WDW, but I LOVE SPLASH MOUNTAIN. It takes me to my Happy Place. I still remember when my Dear Mamaw road this one with our Family...GREAT MEMORIES.

I voted for BTM, but just two weeks ago, DH and I got stuck on Everest and CM's had to come and escort us down the 13 flights of stairs. We were stuck right were the cars stop and it looks like the track has been destroyed and then you start to roll backward. If you ever spend more than the few seconds you are up there normally, like the 20 min. we spent, the "snow covered" mountains on either side are covered in hair bands!! Who knew? DH and I thought the whole expereince neat and liked seeing the inner structure. They gave us fastpasses to return when the ride was fixed, but we ended up passing them to a young couple since we were leaving and they were thrilled to get them.

Overall I would say we enjoy Splash best as a family. HOWEVER....individually, my younger DS is a big fan of Big Thunder, my DW gets on Space every chance she gets, the older DS loves them all and I am a former Space guy (those seats are just getting too cramped for my aging, creaking body!) but now enjoy the theming and final plunge of splash. :thumbsup:
