The first 3 going L to R (That's all I have time for today):

Entrance to 10th mountain division glades off Northway

Upper Cloudspin

About 1/3 of the way down Upper Sky

PS: I think you've got some shots of Empire in there but I wouldn't know because after all my bitchin' last Friday I didn't even ski it. Rolling Eyes Good thing too. Woulda killed me for sure.

Nice shots!

NOT EVEN CLOSE. #3 is between tower 12 and 13. Laughing

That's amazing really, how the heck do you know the towers?

Upper Cloudspin? Comon, it was a sunny morning Sat. anyway. If I took some shots of underneath the tables in the Cloudspin Lounge I'd bet you'd get all them right. Wink

Not that I'm anyone to talk or anything. Laughing

Lift F, Chair 6, Summit Quad is easy on the towers. Tower 10 hill is a patrol call - its the tower on cross over loop (ladies drop turn) tower 14 sits just past racer hut and is a wind check tower.. when she's howling up top it usually is ripping past tower 14.

I wasnt sure about number 4 pic??
