Default How many resorts have you been to?

I have been to


PA: Camel back and bear creek

VT: Sugar bush, Jay Peak and Smuggs

CO: Loveland, Beaver Creek, Vail, Key Stone and Cooper mountain

CA: Squaw, Alpine Meadows and Sugar Bowl

OR: Timberline

That's 14 resorts in 3 seasons of traveling .

Next year I am looking forward for Utah and Montana, or maybe WY.

I try to travel to new places every season, but I am planning into moving to Colorado in two seasons. So I guess after the big move I might stop traveling to ride as much as I do now.

The ones out here in the East crack me up with 300-700 feet of vertical. Something is better than nothing, and the dudes who rip on the Ice Coast Gnar get into the texture of the Rockies and rule! So I do have respect for all.

I worked the Burton Demo Crew for a bit in 98 and the entire 2000 season - all over North America.

hey easy on the cracks about our 400 foot verts. i taught myself on one of those, and now they're good for chugging beers on the lifts with friends and then trying to knock each other down. patrol doesn't like that very much tho

check this place out, you'll be blown away.

other than the above mentioned place, i've been to heavenly in south tahoe. plan on two or three trips this coming season. a cousin of a friend lives in tahoe and we were talking about goin there. i've also been considering jackson hole.
