Date Ridden: Once many years ago and once on 1-1-2008. Times Ridden: 2 obviously. As I continued my theme of reviewing Disney rides since I have visted both Florida and California parks since Halloween, I found myself forgetting about both Thunder Mountain rides. BTM is a very fun family oriented mine train style of ride which is extremely long. I would guess its signature element would be its numerous lift hills (3 I believe) which continually give the train momentum to meander through its course. I have found that with the trains being so long, the back is a much more exciting ride. When on the front, sometimes the train will be all the way over a hill before it gathers up any speed at all. Most mine rains for me get 6s but once again "The Disney Attention to Detail" gets a 1 point bump. Also, on this version we rode it a 1:00 AM on January 1st which was a total hoot. Big Thunder Mountain is just another solid, well-planned, and superbly themed family attraction. Dont forget to use the Fast Pass system and enjoy!!
