ok, i live in Colorado, i have several mountains that i ski at, generally it is crested butte, breck, keystone, and a basin.
my goal is to ski every run on every mountain at least once.
and i can ski no more than 5 new runs a day. i will track my journey on maps. anyone else do this? i think it will be good for getting me out of the park and to explore the natural features of my mountains instead.

That would be tough at Killington with 200 trails. Why the 5 a day rule? I don't see why not as many as you can get in.

You could do it at Mt. Shasta in about 3 hours. Only becasue the lifts are stopped on average about 65% of the time you are on them.

when i was like 12, in a season(weekend warriors), i skied each run on sugarbush, vt 5 times. theres 111 trails, so i did good. and i didnt just do the same run 5 times then move on to the next one, i did it different days if it wasnt epic

i love setting goals like that, a couple years back mine was to ski 100 days, after december i realized i woudl get it easily and decided it should be to ski 100 consecutive days. made the season so fun becuase you would get bored of stuff so you would go try new things where you normally wouldn't go. last year i skied every run on my hill switch, and some thigns that i consider runs that aren't acutally named. that is a real fun challenge if you have steep terrain/
