HAHA that is sure to ruffle some feathers!


I do like the idea of Liftopia using their reviews and datasets like that though. Especially for things like family friendly or beginner friendly. Works better for some aspects than for others obviously!

Seems to be some ballot stuffing on that first list. I like the second list, eclectic and yes - unique ski areas.

Bretton Woods and Magic each receiving TWO #1s in the east tells you there's something fishy with the data collection (low 'N' count most-likely, or a social media outreach campaign, etc..).

#1 in the northeast for "best value" is Arrowhead?? Bizarre...

I think I took this survey to get a liftopia gift certificate. If its the same survey, it had a huge alphabetical list of nationwide ski areas to choose from. People only taking the survey for the freebee likely just chose the first on the list, like Abenaki. Took forever to scroll down.

That's actually true and kind of hilarious.
