thanks B, guess i should read before i ask.

FWIW, i was thinking last night about the old New England Ski maps you used to get at the local ski shops. advertisement driven ones that were somewhat accurate in terms of roads/distances but were hand drawn, almost cartoonish, showing all the ski areas in NE with some basic facts on the back of the map. Googled New England SKi MAP and the first entry brought me back to AZ.. i hadn't even thought to check here first :spin:

Always check AZ first, we have what you need! That was a fun project a few years back, I wonder how much use it gets? Let us know if you find any errors or omissions...

I was thinking about that as well. I'm mixed on how broad to go.... i still see that as being part of new england skiing (really, anything within driving distance, right?)

you have Pine Ridge on the map as active, it is not.

Wow, maybe I should read before responding next time... :lol:

You are correct, it was active in 2006 when we created the map. It should be removed now....

Actually the web services we are using now pulls from the entire country, so I think I can add in the Canadian resorts pretty easily.
