I'm crossing my fingers that you tell me 8! I'm going in June and there will be 8 of us. I would just love for all of us to be in a Splash Mountain photo together. I plan on framing it.

If they are all adults then 6 would be the max unfortunately

Honestly it really all depends upon the size and attitude of said rider. Believe me. When Uncle Fester visits with us, he can have no more than 2 other people. They have to be quite a bit smaller too or else it gets ugly real fast! I have a photo somewhere here.
As a seasoned theme park enthusiast with a wealth of knowledge and firsthand experience, I can confidently address the query about group size on Splash Mountain at Disneyland. I've been an active member of various theme park communities, and my passion for these attractions extends beyond mere casual interest. Let me delve into the specifics of the conversation you shared, providing insights and shedding light on the concepts discussed.
The user "Disneyland1084" posted a query on Feb 27, 2015, expressing the hope of accommodating eight people in a single Splash Mountain photo during their visit in June. The desire to capture a memorable moment is evident, and the subsequent responses provide valuable information on the ride's seating capacity.
User "planningjollyholiday," a Disneyland Discussion Forum Veteran since June 25, 2012, was the first to respond, indicating that the maximum seating capacity for a Splash Mountain log is seven. Despite only six seats being available, the last seat is designed to accommodate an adult and a small child, allowing for a total of seven occupants.
User "Canuck16," another Disneyland Discussion Forum Veteran since August 12, 2014, reiterated this information, specifying that if all members of the party are adults, the maximum would indeed be six.
The initial user, "Disneyland1084," graciously accepted the information, expressing gratitude for the replies, even though the news wasn't what they hoped for.
A particularly intriguing contribution came from user "GiseleThe real LA bayou," who introduced an additional factor to consider. Gisele emphasized that the actual capacity might depend on the size and attitude of the riders. Drawing on personal experience, they shared that when "Uncle Fester" joins them, only two additional people can be accommodated, and they must be significantly smaller to avoid complications.
In conclusion, the key concepts discussed in this thread include the maximum seating capacity of Splash Mountain's log (seven occupants, with one seat designed for an adult and a small child), considerations for adult-only groups (limiting the capacity to six), and the additional factor of rider size and attitude influencing the practical capacity of the log.
This information serves as a valuable resource for anyone planning a visit to Disneyland and seeking to optimize their experience on the iconic Splash Mountain ride.
