Resorts you want to vist but haven't yet been?

[loafer89]

I made it to Ragged and The Balsams Wilderness this season for the first time.

 

[jaywbigred]

I did not see this thread this summer, but so far this year I have been to, for the first time:

Mt. Snow
Bolton Valley
Ascutney
Breckenridge

 

[ccskier]

East-
Sugarbush
MRG
Sad part is that I lived 45 minutes from them for over 5 years and never went.

West-
Jackson
Whistler
Banff

Try to take at least 1 trip/year out there. Colorado last year, Utah this year, Teton's next year.

 

[Zand]

West/International I'll leave out because I've never been to either region and would probably go just about anywhere. As for the east:

Jay
Wildcat
Burke
Whiteface
Sunday River
Sugarloaf
Saddleback

 

[Geoff]

Las Lenas
Les Trois Vallees
The Arlberg

Never skied Wyoming, Montana, or Idaho so at least:
Jackson Hole
Big Sky

Mammoth
Kirkwood
Beaver Creek
Telluride
A-Basin (hopefully this May)
Winter Park
Solitude
Powder Mountain
Snow Basin

CMH

Geoff, here are some pix from Les Trois Vallees for you:

these are all from Courchevel. I did not get a chance to take any pix from Val Thorens or Meribel. But, definitely worth the trip.

I do enjoy traveling so my list is kind of long (and keep growing...):

North America:
Canada: Mt. Tremblen,La Massif, Banff, Whistler and a few in the BC interior.
US: Big Sky, Jackson Hole, Mammoth, Steamboat. (I think that's it for NOT been but wish to)
-- the list for "have been but want to go back" is even longer... (Alta, Snowbird, Deer Valley, Taos, Squaw, Heavenly,... ) I don't know why I like all these "expert" resorts. I'm not an expert skier but the more advanced terrains are just prettier to look at.

Europe:
Zermatt, St. Moritz (partly to do x-c), and a lot of Switzerland.
St. Anton/Ischl (again), didn't spend enough time last time to even scratch the surface
Araba (or anywhere in the Sella Ronda circuit)
Chamonix
La Grave
Saint Foy
Norway (to x-c)

South America: Don't remember names of all places. Ski Arppa and Los Lenas came to mind. But it really doesn't matter, if I want to ski in summer and see some part of south America, I'll look it up when the time comes.

Japan: Same as South America. If I'm heading that way, I'll look up the specific resorts. (I do go to Asia occasionally)

Euro-asia/middle east
Moroco: Picture looks fantastic
Turkey: Ski central Turkey, combined with touring. (been there once, really want to go back)

For New England, Smuggs is the only major "must get there" area. I once had the grand vision of skiing every open area in New England. It just isn't going to happen. Lots of smaller places I would like to eventually hit. And the bigger mountains I have not skied are really not worth the drive from my perspective.

For the East, I would love to eventually tag Whiteface and perhaps Gore. And I have been long over due in trying out the townships.

For the West, it would be a pretty long list. The short list would include Alta/Bird/Solitude/Brighton/PowMow in Utah, a bunch in BC, Jackson Hole, Big Sky, Silverton, and a few out in WA. One of these days the funds will be there.

O.K. maybe I can tie it in with a day I'm up in the Newton area..I don't have any pass hookups at Blue mountain the true mountain but they have lots of specials during the week like Mens day and business persons day where you save 10 dollars on a lift ticket with your business card. I've never skied in the Garden State..

 

[Geoff]

I've already posted my list to this thread twice. The list hasn't changed at all.

Didn't you say you've never been to Sugarloaf? If you haven't you have to add that to the top of your list.
