This is a repeat from November; so here is a copy of that posting:

First time: age 3 1/2 in the Tirol where I was born. The rest in no particular order.
NY: Catamount, Cortina Valley (now closed) Hunter, Belleayre, Whiteface, Gore, Windham, Greek Peak
NJ: Vernon Valley/Great Gore, also as Mountain Creek
MA: Catamount, Butternut, Brodie, Jiminy
VT: Haystack, Mt. Snow, Bromley, Stratton, (old) Magic, Stratton, Okemo, Pico, Stowe, Jay Peak (Been there twice, couldn't ski at all once due to wind, the second time they only had greens open so we bailed south to Killington!)
PA: JackFrost-Big Boulder, Camelback, Shawnee, Tanglewood
VA: Wintergreen
NH: Loon
ME: Sunday River
CA/NV: Heavenly (Went to Reno after three days, got snowed in, couldn't reach Squaw Vally or Kirkwood...had to gamble for three days instead!
CO: Vail, Copper Mountain, Arapaho Basin, Breckenridge
UT: Alta, Snowbird, Solitude, Brighton, Park City, The Canyons, Deer Valley, Snowbasin (My favorite!) It's hard to stay away from SLC - I'm going out there on Dec 6th for my first west trip of the season. NOTE* Skied Alta, Snowbird, and Brighton during the Dec 04 trip.
Canada: Tremblant, Owlshead, Mt. Sutton
I have also visited but not skied (on summer trips)
Brian Head UT,
Purgatory CO (Now called Durango Mt. Resort because they were offending the Bible thumpers!),
Taos NM,
Summit at Snoqualmie WA,
Jackson Hole, Grand Targhee WY,
Sun Valley, Lookout Pass ID
summary: 46 areas skied, an additional 8 visited for "scouting purposes." I may actually have missed some, but age does that to you!
Yes, I have traveled to ALL 50 states (some many times) over the last 30 years. I am now retired, and plan to ski a hell of a lot more mountains that I haven't gotten the chance to ski in the near future. My fantasy is to take a road trip and do various "ski mountain loops" for a couple of weeks at a time.

That's OK, you've got an exclusive on some of these. I'd be interested in hearing about
Hermon Mountain
Eaton Mountain
Camden Snowbowl
If you care to write a quick "trip report", I'm all ears. Gives me more ideas for pins to collect Doesn't matter to me how many years ago it was!

I forgot to add Haystack, raced there at the 1989 Eastern Junior Championships, so that is now 53 resorts.

Billski, I hope you catch up to me, I'm looking to add every year, I was hoping to add Mt. Orford this year, but it didn't work out. As for what I would like to add:

1. Saddleback
2. Sugarloaf
3. Orford
4. Squaw, Alpine, Kirkwood
5. Alagna
6. La Grave
7. Silverton, CO
8. Red Mtn.

That's a few. I think I can get a couple of those next year if things work out, and the top of that list is Alagna, its sick, ridiculous sick. About 7k vert. a couple of trams, one groomed run, all backcountry.

Sugarloaf, Sunday River, Shawnee Peak, Saddleback,Attitash, Wildcat, Cannon, Black. Only been skiing for 6 years so I have a lot of places to go still. I sure had an awesome year though!!
:lol:
