Best Trail Pod?

Northeast I assume?
My vote would be Fourrunner at Stowe. That is a sweet lift and a HUGE trail "pod". Second would be MRG's single. Same reasons.

Does Wildcat count as a giant trail pod?

Yes. But trails near Tomcat only seem to get skied when that lift is running

Castlerock because I wouldn't count the single chair or Red Line a pod.

If you're not into sharing, Granite at Discovery, MT. My favorite where you might actually see other people might be Putnam Creek at Silver Star, BC.

Little Cloud at Snowbird. Bowls, steeps, groomers, killer views, and like a 4 minute ride to almost 10,850' above sea level or so.

Palaviccini at A-Basin. A little bit of everything. Glades, bumps, and small chutes.
Chair 1 and Chair 8 at Loveland. Chair 1 is steep and bumpy with good glades, 8 holds pow for a long time.
Deep Temerity at Aspen Highlands. Just steep, gnarly glades
Both Grouse Mtn and Rose Bowl pod at Beaver Creek. Rose bowl is great lowish angle bumps to warm up on. Also has a bunch of fun little optional cliffs on lower stone creek. Once you "graduate", grouse mtn has steeper terrain with bigger bumps. Royal Elk glades are legit as well.
Another vote for fourrunner at Stowe. Steep and fun
OZ at Sunday River. Not as steep as Stowe, but good glades. Too bad it seems like the quad never runs.
Number one goes to Mary Jane at Winter Park. Personally I think it is the best pod in the state if you're into bumps and glades, which are plentiful. Has short chutes too if you're up to the challenge.
Once a chairlift is added to Tucker Mtn at Copper like stated in their MDP, I'm sure that'll be in the running as well. Right now you have to hike over there or wait for the snowcat, which prevents lapping the runs.

It only counts as a pod since they put in the return lift. Befrore that it would be classified as "in-bound side-country".

I like the Kennebago at Saddleback mention above....incredible advanced/tree offerings up there but also some nice steep groomers and intermediate cruisers as well.
Others that come to mind: Castlerock, Outpost at Pico, Peak Express quad at Whistler, Cannonball quad
