According to the number of thread titles posted on AlpineZone, these are the most popluar mountains in the Northeast:

1: Killington, 475 posts
2. Sundown, 345
3. Hunter, 297
4. Sugarbush, 296
5. Sunday River, 270
6. Stowe, 241
7. Mount Snow 221
8.Cannon, 193
9. Burke, 182
10. Sugarloaf, 175
11. Loon, 168
12. Magic, 147
13. Wildcat, 137
14. Whiteface, 134
15. Jay, 129
16. MRG/Mad River, 98

Mt Snow could potentially have more results but the "mt snow" search kept returning anything with "snow" in the thread title.

So apparently Sundown is the 2nd coolest place evar! :roll: :roll: :roll: :grin:

Cool, Saddleback did not make the list. The place sucks anyway and everyone should stay away.

How Magic is at No. 12 is beyond me. It's like their PR firm in here at times.

Hell, how Sundown is as low as No. 2 is truly beyond me.

how did you do the search?
Click to expand...

I went to Seach > Advanced Search

Under "Search by Keyword" I typed in the the name of the mountain (e.g. Sugarbush).

From the drop down option I selected "Search Titles Only"

Hit "Search Now"


hmm but those numbers dont take into the account wether it was a good ot a bad post. feeling kinda bored hun?

I didn't want to break it down that way. Technically one can be "popular" for both good and bad reasons. Killington probably has as many "good" posts as it does "bad" posts. On the other hand, chastizing Sundown for being a tiny molehill in CT is not allowed on Alpinezonre, so all 345 threads are "good" :)
And stop calling me "hun", it creeps me out :p


Does that count trip reports?

I searched the entire forum. So yes, Trip Reports, Trips and Events postings, even Miscellaneous Discussions threads count.


P.S. I was motivated to do this search based on the absurd number of Sundown threads that have cropped up in this forum over the last couple of years. It gets a bit annoying when 10 of the 20 Trip Reports visible are all from Sundown. Can someone take and combine those into a weekly thread instead of a daily thread? That way reports from other resorts can stay on page one for more than 2 days.

Well, that would be annoying to read. If more people would post TRs from other mountains then the number of Sundown threads wouldn't seem so disproportionate.
