Expedition Everest often is compared to the 1959 Matterhorn Bobsleds roller coaster at Disneyland, which also features a snowy mountain setting and an "abominable snowman" figure throughout the ride.

Expedition Everest is the tallest of the artificial mountains at Walt Disney World Resort, According to Imagineering, it is Disney's 18th mountain-themed attraction.
