In my office I have a lot of pics I took over the years framed and on the walls. I also have a few Tucks posters framed and also one of Coombs skiing the waterfall.

when i was in college, i had one side of a dorm room plastered with trail maps but that got old. currently, i have about two dozen framed pictures throughout the house in addition to a big cannon poster, couluir calendar, framed NESM post cards, and a tucks mated black and white photo (i think it is a washburne shot).

Lots of them

I have a wall next to my Total Gym with maps from places I have skied and an entire den dedicated to Burke Mountain-I just can't help myself.

Up north I have a maps of Waterville and loon areas. I have my location with a pin on it to show where we are an other points of interest. Nice conversation piece for guests, plus it helps figure out where the hell we are. Got it from the welcome/info center at exit 28 in Campton.

Yup....

Topographic, satellite image, and photographic of Mad River Valley....framed and laminated to super thick mat stock so I can poke my little colored pins into them and mark all my secret lines....and things like lifts, hiking, mtn. biking, and good cups of coffee, etc.

Visitors who've seen the maps are given truth serum and deprogrammed before they can leave.

My home office wall has large panoramas of eastern and western areas. A real nice one of Telluride is one of the best.

My office had lots of ski and biking related pictures, stickers, and maps. At home i have ski pictures hanging up as well. No ski maps hanging up, but they are accessible on the beer fridge. The only map hanging up at home is one with pins tracking all the NH 4000-footers taht we have hiked.

I have Whistler, Jay Peak, Sunshine Village, Tucks, and Big Sky posters in my room. I have been to all of them besides Big Sky. I wanted to put up only ones I have been to before but the Big Sky picture is so cool that I had to put it up. It looks like this except better.

My home office has ski trail maps on the doors of the closets, some old passes on my bulletin board, and a large New England map. On the map, I have marked the ski areas that I have skied (in blue), the mountains I have hiked (in red) and where I have lived. I ran out of red tacks, so I am improvising...the Whites are really 'red' right now.

I have a "shrine" to Killington on the basement wall in my parents house, but since Killington was sold to ASC I have had little interest in it. My father has sold his house and if vacating on saturday and I might try to save it.

It's mostly old trail maps from 1987 and up as well as advertisements with the old gondola
and some press releases about the mountain.

At home in my office I had a 1985 Zermatt summer skiing pass hanging from my computer desk cabinet as well as a Sugarloaf trail map poster and an aerial photo of Mount Washington on my wall, but I took that stuff down and packed it away as we sell our house.
