This summer I made a list of all the places I had skied. What I realized was that I had 46 areas on my list! Yeah for me I thought. Then I realized that gave me more areas than years I'd been alive (not by much) and I thought wouldn't it be neat to always have more areas skied on my list than years I've been alive?

So here's the game...
Make a list of the mountains where you have skied. If your list is near your age, try to play the way I am going to by keeping even with your age or ahead of it. If you have fewer mountains or have limited access to slopes, set a realistic goal that allows you to add areas as you age. Make up your own set of rules; for me it's really about having a goal to keep me motivated.

Shortly after I thought of this game, I realized I might be in my peak years :eek: to add some to the list and immediatly began figuring out which were within driving distance that I had missed. The good news is that this year I have skied 5 days so far at 4 different areas and they were all new ones on my list!! That gives me 50 different mountains! Yeah!

Will any of you join me in this silliness? Hope so!

I actually have a list on my computer. Found it when I read this thread. I'm up to 45. Alas, that is not my age :( But I found DH's list, and he's ahead, so 1 out of 2 of us isn't bad! Haven't counted up DS's, he's probably at double his age.

23 for me... I would need another 16 to equal my age.

The problem is, there aren't another 16 places I would really like to ski, there are maybe 10 on my 'must ski' list, then I guess I will go back and start at the bottom again. :laugh:

I'm about quality rather than quantity, there are a few places that I really want to check out for the first time, but apart from that I am happy to keep going back to places that I know will deliver.

23 still isn't bad is it, considering I live in Australia!!
