If you grew up skiing somewhere, but then move and have skied a different mountain for over 4 years without going back, which is your home mountain?

Wherever you wana claim... For example i used to ski northstar, seirra and boreal at tahoe but last year i moved to montana and the mountain here sucks. So i still go back and visit alot of the winter and i saw my home mountain is northstar, seirra and boreal at tahoe.

But what if you dont go back to claimed "home mountain"? No skiing, no just visiting friends in the area, but just living on the east coast claiming west coast trying to act hard around a bunch of kids who haven't even traveled west before.

home is where your heart is.

i grew up skiing at wilmot mountain, the matterhorn of the midwest. even though i've lived in utah for a few years and have a bird pass i will always consider wilmot my home mountain.

In my case my home mountain closed. I skied sunshine for 3 years after that, it is kind of my home mountain I guess now. But now I am really just like a homeless sine i moved and just drive around to ski.

i'm still claiming 7springs as my home mountain, even though i live in idaho now.
to me, home mountain is where you first learned how to ski and wherever you feel the greatest connection to
