For whatever reason, Sheer Boom at Sugarloaf (under the Super Quad) has eluded me. I say each time I ride that lift that I'm gonna hit it, but it seems I never end up skiing it. I also hope to hit Rumble at Sugarbush someday as well as Master Magician at Magic. I've also never skied Ripcord at Mount Snow, nor Devil's Fiddle at Killington.

What trails have eluded you?
I'm still in pursuit of the above trails. Gotta add Spillsville at SB to the list. Based on posts I've read, Empire at Whiteface seems like something I'd like to try, as well as Chin Clip at Stowe. So many trails...

I would like to ski any trail off the top of Whiteface. I have only been to the mountain once in December of 1990, and the summit was closed. I just never seem to get the chance/ambition to drive to Whiteface and gravitate torwards Sugarloaf instead.

My memories off Little Whiteface are of a large mountain, so the summit must be awesome.

I was going to say.... wait a minute, what I'm I doing skiing at K-Mart??
Almost reminds me of the Sisters at Kirkwood, but this photo appears to be much steeper.

That bowl at Snowbird looks steeper than I remember it too. I got to do it on a powder day :cool: I didn't really find it that thrilling though??!? I'm not big on bowls, I prefer trails. I think it must be the easterner in me.:lol:

Thats some fun stuff right there. On the other side of that ridge it is all wind blown exposed rock. Not a big area to ski down to get into . Brings back good memories. I want to ski

ya it does look pretty awsome, and after looking at some pics it doesnt look that hard

Mott canyon is pretty sick stuff. You can make it as hard as you want. There are some spots with mandatory 10 to 20 foots drops. Was in there for a day and loved every minute of it. They considered it icey that day so I was the only on in there. After a while I met up with two boarders. They were from Boston. We got a good laugh as the only people in motts was eastcoasters

Few things on my list would be:

* Climb the boot ladder to the top of Honeycomb Canyon, not sure if there's a name for this area.

* The runs in the Great Gulf of Mt Washington. Forget their names, but stuff like Airplane

* Just scratched the surface at Tux this year with Left Gully, Chute and Right Gully, want to hit more next year.

A-Z chutes at Big Sky..never got a chance to ski them when I lived in MT..and I really have no interest in Corbetts..I'm just too nervous about injury and the rocks below could break my back or worse..I can't get mad steezy vert if I'm in a wheelchair..
