My Journey to Snowboarding at 100 Resorts
A long time ago I set a goal of snowboarding at 100 different resorts. It’s a lofty goal, but one that I think I can achieve. I love looking back and knowing where I’ve gone and what I’ve done.

I’ve been snowboarding 25 years and as of this update have been to 51 resorts.
Places I Have Visited
There are 7 Continents and 196 countries (193 UN Countries + Vatican City/Holy See + Kosovo + Taiwan) in the world and while visiting all of them has never been a goal of mine I want to see as many new and exciting places as I can. Below is my progress so far.
