Benm Posted May 9, 2020 Report Posted May 9, 2020 Wow that's a lot. In the last 15 years, Blue this season and Jack frost once (twice if you include the time I took my wife, had to hike halfway up the slope and took one run on my own then left). Pretty unimpressive. 3 Quote

toast21602 Posted May 9, 2020 Report Posted May 9, 2020 (edited) I'm not sure of a bucket list because all that I had on there was to ski the Alps and now that is checked off. I'd love to ski more in Europe. Italy. France. I still haven't skied anywhere in CO or CA so somewhere there. Alaska would be cool. Japan would be awesome on a good snow year. A heli day or trip. I dunno, I'm grateful for where I've been able to ski so if I didn't get to any other place other than where I've been I wouldn't be dissappointed. I just copied my stats from the site, but these are the areas I've been to. Of these: Favorite in the East: Killington Favorite in the West: Brighton, Jackson, Pow (all for different reasons) Favorite Pacific: Whistler Favorite Europe: 4 Vallées Blue Mountain, PA Whistler/Blackcomb, BC Big Boulder, PA Jackson Hole, WY Powder Mt, UT Snowbasin, UT Camelback, PA Killington, VT Jack Frost, PA Canyons, UT Snowbird, UT Mt. Mik, PA Steven's Pass, WA Mt. Baker, WA Sno Mountain, PA Park City, UT Deer Valley, UT Bear Creek, PA Brighton, UT Elk Mountain, PA Montage Mountain Alta, UT Verbier, CH Solitude, UT Bruson, CH Shawnee, PA La Tzoumaz, CH Belleayre, NY Seven Springs, PA 4 Vallées, CH Edited May 9, 2020 by toast21602 4 1 1 Quote

As much as I'd love to, Telluride next season will be tough. We'll see though. Outside of PA, Arizona Snowbowl and Whiteface are likely for next season. 1 Quote

My dad lived in VA for a few years when I was in middle school/high school and we went there once when I was visiting over Christmas break. Was half-open and pretty small. If I remember correctly you park at the top like Jack Frost. That was the most interesting thing to me at the time, having only skied where you take a lift to begin up to that point. 1 1 Quote
