Ratings Adjustment: Eliminating Ties in Our Rankings
Updated:
October 13, 2024
Tied mountains are now a thing of the past at PeakRankings.
Having assessed more than 50 resorts with only 101 possible score permutations (all of 0 to 100), it was inevitable that multiple mountains would end up with the same overall PeakRankings Mountain Score. At this point, more than half the ski areas we’ve reviewed are tied with one or more other resorts in our rankings. It’s time for a splitter.
In order to address this issue, we are now splitting ties based on Snow and Size scores:
If two or more resorts have the same overall Mountain Score, they will be split in our rankings based on which has the highest Snow score.
If two or more resorts have the same overall Mountain Score AND Snow score, they will be split based on their total skiable footprint.
The above change comes as part of a series of PeakRankings Mountain Score recalibrations implemented today. To see the full list of adjustments, clickhere.
