This trivia will give you a few chances to guess on lifts at different places that I have skied this year in many different parts of the country.

Identify the lift and area in each photo.

Right, right, wrong, right, right. Great job!

Only #8 is wrong. Right area, wrong lift.

Correct. I thought about YC also, but I didn't look up the trail map to see the name of the lift.

Correct.

I had not heard about the shot ski event so I looked it up on their website...very interesting.



On another note: Still no guesses for the first two?

I'm surprised that the midwest pictures went before those.
