    Road trip to at least Schweitzer and Big Sky. If there's time, hit Red and maybe another Canadian area on the same trip.

    If I visit the folks over the holidays, I'll take the car and that means a Kirkwood, Squaw and/or Alpine Meadows drive-by.

    Will try for Crystal a couple times or more. Been there twice already, but had horrible days- have yet to really ski it. Still haven't been to Alpental.

    Wondering if you guys could possible work out whether this chute has a cornice on the top of it... Looks like it to me (Did a bit of playing about in the Gimp and there seems to be a lighter shade sticking out in the middle), but want your opinions

    Talking about the one furthest left, which tops out in a notch between the peak and the tower.

    Depends on the day and year. Judging by the huge cornices on the ridge behind with a similar aspect, I would bring a rope. You might squeeze under the cornice by hugging the rocks on the skier's left.

    While I am here, back tothe list:

    Let's see ... I like fresh snow. Lots of it. The more the better. That makes it easier to narrow the list down to:

    Baker
    Baker ob
    Baker bc
    Baker, the volcano

    I lack imagination? Nah -- money. They give me a pass, so I work on local problems:

    This is the first year that I don't have much of a list. I'm working on my 2nd 100 and that list includes: Bachelor, Marmot, Sun Peaks, Hood Meadows, Castle, Smuggler's, White Face, Montana Snowbowl, Kimberly, Le Massif, Stowe, Sunday River, Nakiska, Powder King, Jay Peak, MRG, Okemo, Santa Fe, Alyeska, Monarch, Blacktail, and Brundage. I don't know how many of those I can get to this year but I'm gonna try for as many as I can...

    Pretty much all those Western areas (except Powder King) are in my first 100, which I believe is actually only around 80.

    I'm trying to think of any areas in BC/Alberta I haven't skiied and I think it would come down to the far North BC areas. Powder King Shanes Mountain etal

    So for this year I want to:

    Hit the Northern/Coastal BC areas I keep hearing about that have so much snow.

    Did a mini version of that trip. I want to carve out like 3 weeks to do it again. Inner B.C.Is it for me. No crowds, great skiing

    other than that I have always wanted to do South America.
