Ski area count.

[snowski/swimmouse]

Not that I know of...

 

[ski diva]

Wonder if there is a thread "How many years have you been skiing?"

If there is, it's ancient (don't forget, this forum started in 2006). So why not go ahead and start one?

 

[KBee]

Grandma's backyard on her wooden skis from the '30s--still have them, and still want to ski them someday. Chairlift was a snow shovel.
Lake Placid
Holiday Hill/Mountain High
Mammoth
Holiday Hill/Mountain High
More Mammoth
June Lake? Whatever it was before it became part of Mammoth...
A college ski club trip to Colorado where we skied Breckenridge, and three or four other amazing places that I can't even remember, but I had a blast! Also somehow had the energy to go to a community center climbing gym at night after skiing (Can you even imagine!?)
A little local hill in South Bohemia, Czech Republic (one run, and migraine? I may have not even skied at all. I remember there was strudel, and I had a horrible migraine, and had my head down all day on the table. But I shared my skis and boots, because that's just what we did.)
More Mammoth
(Insert a decade or so of not skiing at all because I left my gear in Europe, and because of shaped skis, and also being scared to drive up Mt. Hood in a Saturn.)
Mt. Hood (Meadows, Ski Bowl, Timberline)
Bachelor
More Hood

Might be fun to do a listing of ski areas skied over a life-time. Sort of where we've left our tracks. Here's my list, as best as I can figure:

Vermont
Okemo, Stratton, Bromley, Killington, Sugarbush, Stowe, Smuggs, Mt Snow, Haystack, Hog Back (no longer there), Burke, Jay

MA
Jiminy Peak

NY
Bellayre, Greek Peak, Song (don't think it exists anymore)

NJ
The old Great Gorge and Vernon Valley ski areas, as well as Snow Bowl (I think the first two are now Mountain Creek, and I don't know if the third exists anymore)

PA
Blue, Elk, Jack Frost, Camelback, Doe (now Bear Creek), Spring Mount (a teeny tiny area down the road from me in PA)

CO
Breckenridge, Keystone, Copper, Vail, Beaver Creek, Aspen, Snowmass, Steamboat

UT
Park City, Deer Valley

And that's it. Of course, I'm more than willing to expand this list anytime.

Where've you been?

Good list. Snow Bowl exists only as a web site. It is a park now. There used to be people that skinned up . I think they now forbid it. It used to have a great lodge and an outdoor heated swimming pool. I learned to ski there. Here I am at Snow Bowl.

 

[marzNC]

The stop at Winter Park before heading to Wolf Creek in December took advantage of early season snow and the fact that I drove from North Carolina with my ski buddy so our travel schedule had some flexibility. Added a day at Sundance before heading north to Big Sky. Well worth paying for a day ticket (no senior discount) on a powder day. Given the road closures in LCC/BCC at the start of my April trip when we were staying in SLC, ended up spending a day exploring Park City using Bill's Epic Buddy Passes for me and my daughter.

Yup back country skied Mount Pinos 3 weeks ago.

Mount Pinos is a mountain located in the Los Padres National Forest on the boundary between Ventura and Kern counties in California. The summit, at 8,847 feet, is the highest point in Ventura County.
