How many different mountains did you ski in 2010/2011?

How many different mountains did you ski in 2010/2011? I hit up 9 different mountains this season. Their vertical drop varied from 600 to 2100 .  Trail count from 18 to 77 and distance from house from 14 miles to 365.

Gore
MRG
Jay
Sugarbush
Mt. Snow
West

Usually I'm good for a few more, but I was pretty busy at Gore this year.  Still room on the list for a trip to WF and a trip to Tuck's.

Gore
Whiteface
Pico
Magic
Killington
West
Heavenly
Squaw Valley

PowMow, Snowbird, Brighton, Solitude, Alta, Gore, Whiteface, Holiday Valley, Kissing Bridge, Magic, Willard. I went to West and Royal, but never got to ski.

Vertical ranging from 500 (kissing bridge) to 3430 (Whiteface!)... unless hiking the mines with Connor counts. Then That's probably only 175 vertical or so.

Trail count.. couldn't tell ya. Willard probably has 10. One of the mtns in Utah probably has upward of 100, except there are a lot of open bowls that wouldn't really justify the trail count : Acreage ratio.

PowMow claims 7000 skiable acres.

Matt I don't know how you can't include Whiteface on your list.

Fuje - what was the vert on that sand dune you skied?

Gunny J - what hills are on your list?

Would like to see River's list...

I'm also hoping I'm not done. I've got 35 days:

Gore Mtn
North Creek Ski Bowl
Harvey Mtn
Balm o Gilead
Whiteface
The Slides
Hickory
Plattekill
Hunter
Jay Peak
Mt Trixie
Alpine Mountain

No real Garnet Hill this year, except to access the woods.

I actually think that's pretty cool list for me. I like those mountains a lot.

And Hickory, Jay, the Ski Bowl and The Slides are all new to me.

So far:

Killington
Picot
Gore
Plattekill
Smugglers Notch
Whiteface
Sugarbush
Bolton Valley
Hunter

Slow season, should get a couple more in before I'm done.

Gore, Swain, Mt. Sunapee, Plattekill, Keystone and A-Basin  I guess the last two make up for my lack of diversity  I think I might take a trip to Whiteface this weekend and I still hold that chance for Tuck

Hunter
Bell
Zermatt(summer 2010)
Gore
Le Massif
Massif du Sud
Mt St Anne
Catamount

Pretty poor....could be worse

Harv, isn't Ski Bowl really Gore ??

Whiteface
Park City
The Canyons

(I prefer quality over quantity ... Just Kidding!!! )

I was really hoping to get to Gore this year, and a couple of trips into the Catskills but my season got cut short with a bad injury. Maybe next year!!!

Hunta
Stratton
Plattekill
Gore
North Creek Ski Bowl
Hickory

Whiteface (thanks Harv)
Gore
Snowbird
PowMow
Brighton
Mt. Peter
Mountain Creek

Not bad for a year when the wife was prego.  I figure I got around 15 days in so far.  Hoping to get a few northern VT areas like Jay, Stowe, Sugarbush, or Bolton off my list next year.

good topic

7 for me

WF
Gore
Sugarbush
Jay
Killington
Copper Mt
Steamboat

61 days and counting

Gore and Whiteface only, just like last year.

Whiteface
Gore
Belleayre
Plattekill
Hunter
Taos Ski Valley

This could take a while... in order of first visit of the season:

Killington (Earned)
Sunday River
Cannon
Smuggs
Balsams Wilderness*
Mount Snow*
Cranmore*
Pico (First visit in a dozen years)
Mad River Glen
Tenney (Closed/Earned)
Saddleback
Burke
Middlebury College Snowbowl*
Jay
Bromley (First visit in a dozen years)
Okemo*
Sugarloaf

I am hoping to add Whiteface and Gore to this list. Stowe and Sugarbush will definitely be added as well as Killington lift serviced. Probably too late to add Stratton or Suicide Six. * = The List.

I hate people that live so close to the mountains. Good for you Steve

Steep subject for a mellow mind.  We have a ceramic nick-knack hanging in our downstairs water closet that sums it up; "If you're lucky enough to live in the mountains, you're lucky enough"  This season rivals 2000/2001 throughout the Northeast for snowfall, weather and fun; Long May It Run.  For Pounder Hounders we can never get enough, you get what you give, as long as you share and spread the goods with friends. Nuf said, here is my tote, complete with spin on the best campaign I've had going downhill.

Gore- Ski Bowl reopens, classic trees that are all growed up!

Sugarbush- terrain, cold, always until the last bell. Burr.

Hickory- Think you're an expert?  Ski Hickory, find out.

West Mtn.  Like night skiing with 2000 teenyboppers?  Back to the future, circa 1974.  Party on Dude.

Whiteface- Steep, fallline and wait for it...Holy Cow! POW-POW!  Slides were not available, dodged that bullet.

Bolton Valley- Virginal trip.  Thank you sir, may I have another.

Smuggs-  Either ditch the chute your in or chuck a 20' cliff.  Guess I followed the wrong tracks.  Tracks also ditched the alleged chute.  Needs another look see, this year.

Jay- Terrain, conditions, weather, com-padres.  Over the top and down around, 'til both knees started trash talking.  Back next week.

Stowe- same old, lame old, only pricier.  Never again.  Unless free tickets, OB guide, and debriefing @ Mr. Pickwicks Pub (Scotch List- 60+ Items!)

My Side Yard- kinda hike side-hill for about half a mile, then pretty much go downhill for another half mile, collecting 900' of fall-line tree vert.  Repeat as able.  Sadly, this faces the Westerly way and has disappeared in the last few days.

Next on the short to-do list;

K-Mart- Sunshine Daydream 4/16.  Always a hoot.

MRG- I'll ski it this year when and if I can.

Sugarloaf-  Never skied in The Pine Tree State, maybe this will be....

There are some pretty impressive lists here!  I'm a little jealous but shouldn't be, I've had a great time this year on these four:

Gore (10) - I consider it my home mountain and I feel like I really got to know it this year.
Hickory (7) - First season skiing there.  It definitely took my skiing to a different level but I still have a LOT to learn.
Whiteface (2) - In many ways my favorite.  I just love the mountain and the region.
West (7) - First season there also.  Skied there while my daughter took lessons.  Nice mid-week change of pace.

Might sneak over to West for some last licks there tonight.  Heading up to Whiteface tomorrow!  I can't ski this weekend so after tomorrow it's all a question of what's open when.  I'm also hoping to sneak in an end of season trip somewhere in VT but it remains to be seen whether or not that will happen.
