Aspen Highlands, Highland bowl?

Yes sir. Its a long hike but one of my favorite areas. I have always wanted to hit the really steep chutes to the left as you first start to hike but have only had time to do a single lap the two times I have been there so I went to the top both times.

True. It depends on the time of year and how skied out sections are where Ill ride def some fun to be had from the star around mushroom in the trees all the way around.

That's probably my favorite mtn. Prolly only got 5 to 10 days there the season I worked at buttermilk but damn. Even the lift accesed terrain is real good. Ajax is legit as well. Someday I'll get back. I lost a pair of boxer at the highland bowl party doing a naked last lap. RIP

That place on a pow day is legit.

Denali

You get bonus points for naming it right.

I almost got into a fight with some native Denali folks when I mentioned I saw McKinley and they very sternly corrected me. In my defense they hadn’t changed the name so on every map and information board it was still labeled “McKinley”.

Following fall it was changed and everything was hastily changed in the park. Looked like a bunch kids crossed out McKinley on all the signs and hand wrote Denali.

Second pic is Revelstoke. Well, technically it's taken on the edge of the ski hill at South Bowl looking towards Mt. Cartier.

This one might be tricky so I will give hints. It is in BC, NOT at a ski resort but still a popular skiing spot

this is an awesome thread, i'll post one soon

it's funny how just from traveling and watching videos for long enough you can start to identify places from just a quick video clip or picture even if there isn't something iconic in the frame
