[VOTE] Greatest Mountain Teams this Year

Hello, all. One last thing. I thought it would be better to make it another post for this.

I would like to ask the assistance of Chief Delphi in helping me determine the ten greatest mountain teams this year. I know I could make my own list, but I want to know what you all think!

Please go to the link below to vote for your favorite teams from the mountain region this year. I define the mountain region as Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, New Mexico, Nevada, Utah, Wyoming, and Montana, as well as Alberta. You all have until next Friday at 11:59 PM to submit your vote.

The website will have you vote for your top 10 teams. Please follow the instructions there.

The link is here:

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1oFk...EjDBM/viewform

Your input is important! Please let me know what your favorite teams were! Thanks!

Darn, I knew I forgot one. Wyoming teams are included!

As for everyone else, it pertains to only Rocky Mountain teams.

Re: [VOTE] Greatest Mountain Teams this Year

Better toss the entire PNW district in this discussion. The Cascades, Olympics and Alaskan ranges are real mountains by any definition. Unless you want to discount our volcanos Mt Rainer, Mt St Helens, Mt Hood, and Mt Adams as being undeserving of Mountain status.

Alaska has your Colorado range trumped several times over.

I was actually thinking about including PNW in my area of discussion. The only reason I didn't was because I was pretty sure you guys had your own analysis already. Is that not the case? If PNW doesn't have a writeup of its own, I'd be more than happy to include you guys this offseason/next year! (I might also annex California if that WestCoastBestCoast guy isn't doing analyses anymore. That would bring all the western states into my domain, and all their mountains.)

Re: [VOTE] Greatest Mountain Teams this Year

the appalacians are only short because they are hundreds of millions of years older than the rockies.

erosion's one heck of a drug

Re: [VOTE] Greatest Mountain Teams this Year

Six days left, everyone!

Also, I have made a decision. Come this offseason/next year, I will be including the PNW District in my weekly writeup! Feel free to nominate PNW teams for the top 10!

Go vote!

Re: [VOTE] Greatest Mountain Teams this Year

Four days left, all!

27 people have voted thus far, much more than I thought. Let's see if we can get more votes!

Also, please don't forget that California and Texas teams will not be considered. PNW teams will, though!

WCBC would say that CA and Texas aren't eligible because they would fill up the entire top 10.

Also, 987 is an honorary CA team.
