Northwoods in Vail, Colorado
A long time ago I set a goal of snowboarding at 100 different resorts. It’s a lofty goal, but one that I think I can achieve.
I love looking back and knowing where I’ve gone and what I’ve done. Snowboarding is one of my biggest passions and I try to go to at least one new resort every year so this list is to keep track of every new mountain I explore. I’ve been snowboarding 29 years and as of this update & have been to 67 resorts.
As of 1/1/2020 there are 427 resorts in the US.
