With all of the things being discussed lets have some fun. What side of the Matterhorn do you like to ride on? I've always liked the left side. I think it's faster. Anybody?

If we’re looking at the loading, then the right. As I recall, the left side is too rough.http://micechat.com/forums/disneylan...oto-heavy.html

Depends on the time of day.“Not the least hard thing to bear when they go from us, these quiet friends, is that they carry away with them so many years of our own lives.”

One of each.
But we've always believed that the 'Tomorrowland side' is longer and faster. That belief goes back to the '60s and I WILL NOT BE MOVED!!!!"Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain."

Right side. Only the right side. For ever and ever more, the Right. Side.
The reason: as a grade school kid when the Matterhorn was new, the screams echoing from the left side sounded enormously more terrified than the right side. I mean Night-of-the-Living-Dead-Eat-Your-Brains terror (remember, this was before Six Flags). Making it worse, a friend staggered out of the exit, shaky, trembling, looking like he was going to puke, stammering: "Don't ride the left side! Don't ride the left side! Left side? DEATH!" That sealed the deal -- I procrastinated getting on either side, using the excuse that I didn't have enough E Tickets. I didn't ride the Matterhorn until high school, and then it was only the right side.
It wasn't until college that my friend confessed he'd been bs'ing me. But by then it was too late -- Left Side Terror had been indelibly imprinted on my brain. To this day, all I know is...
Left Side = Death

On the Matterhorn, I been told by many Cast Members that the right is better.......
and I also believe that being true.
But - same tokens
I also look and see which side had the shortest line
Soaring like an EAGLE !
