Little game called just the Tips-WIN free pair of goggles!
Prize: A pair of brand new Bolle Nova goggles. If someone actually gets them all, I'll show you the ~14 frame/strap/lens options you can choose from.
How to win: Correctly identify all 14 ski areas and chairlifts.
Hints: All pics taken by me, within the last 2 seasons, at USA resorts, west of the Mississippi. Some are easier, you can probably see the resort name somewhere in the frame or a distinctive landmark...others may be more difficult.
Here ya go, get yoself new pair of goggles!

2 is the bird... 6 is the ghee
no Jackson lifts?"I think people resist freedom because they're afraid of the unknown. But it's ironic....That unknown was once very well known. It's where our souls belong....The only solution is to confront them--confront yourself--with the greatest fear imaginable. Expose yourself to your deepest fear. After that, fear has no power, and fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free." -Jim Morrison

2 outta 14 isn't too bad Humble! And unfortunately no, no Jackson lifts for me the last 2 seasons. They're kinda from all over the place so for 1 other person to know them all will be pretty tough.

Sawatch Splitter, 1/14 right!
thaar, correct on #3.
Pablo, correct on #12, wrong on #5 but close. and if you ski those 2 places, you might guess another.
I wonder if the collective can even name them all?

1 is solitude
2/14 for me"The idea wasnt for me, that I would be the only one that would ever do this. My idea was that everybody should be doing this. At the time nobody was, but this was something thats too much fun to pass up." -Briggs

nice try aaron, but #1 is not solitude.
loJack, right on with SV! I knew we had maggots up there but I thought that might have been a harder one to get. Too bad to hear it's getting gone. I almost used Christmas but that would have been too easy!
2 is not breck's highest chair, the imperial. in the photo background, you can see another mode of uphill travel going higher than the one pictured.
