Shameless promotion as I own the company that sells these!!! But longstanding Snowheads forumite and actually I thought people would quite like this! However delete admins if you like.
I'm a pretty keen skiier. We started making these gin, beer, whisky maps that you scratch off. Anyway, I knew we must have a Ski Resort scratch off map. So I'm delighted to say we finally made it!
https://www.mapsinternational.co.uk/scratch-off-alpine-skiing-print.html
I know now I've got some serious work to do on the ski resorts I have visited!
If you want a discount of a fiver per map use SNOWHEADS code at checkout.
Ooh and feedback welcome, although just to say now it was absolutely impossible to get every single resort on the map so we had to make a judgement call in some cases!!
Hope you love it as much as we do!

Hi Liz
I think they look great. Well done.
I think you’ve posted this in the wrong forum. It might be better, and reach a wider audience, in either ‘the piste’ or in Apres. Contact admin or someone and they will advise.

I like that. Is there a list of resorts included on the map somewhere?

Thanks for the feedback foxtrotzulu. Good suggestion about posting in the piste or apres....
tubaski we don’t have a list of the resorts on the website, but maybe we should do that, I will investigate tomorrow, although there are quite a lot of them, but not all. You can zoom in so might be able to spot if one you want is on there.

@liz09, Liz, how about a discount code that will work for US buyers?

Code should work for USA addresses Mr mike. Should work anywhere in the world. I’ve just double checked it and it seems to be ok.
Ster Lowest we get is Serre Chevalier / Puy St Vincent I’m afraid. Yes you’re right we are missing isola /Vars etc. Trouble is the more area we needed to cover the less resorts we could fit on. We didn’t want to distort the map and we’d run out of room for more insets. Appreciate that some people might miss some resorts 
They are selling well so if we get some more feedback on that we might try again for the next print run.

Not those southern alps , the Southern Alps in NZ!

code applies, and when I enter my US address, I get an option for free shipping. I don't think it's going to ship for free to the US, so I'm leery of going through the paywall and making payment.
On site on your link, if I click the US flag in the upper right corner, I'm redirected to this website: https://www.mapsinternational.com/
the code doesn't work on this site, and I think I need the code to work there for me to be able to order the product in the states (and have it delivered in the states).

ps @mr. mike, you can actually order from either site and we will deliver to USA. If you order from the UK site with free delivery you get Royal Mail standard airmail so delivery will take a couple of weeks. If you order via our US website you get your choice of delivery, but USPS retail (actually First Class Package) is about 1-3 days depending on how far you are from Minneapolis where they come out of!
*yes we do have the intention to streamline this in the future as it's confusing!
Up to you, it's slightly cheaper on the UK website if you're willing to wait.
Anyway, you have both codes now.
Cheers
Liz

It was probably for a limited period. First time it worked. Last month it didn't. Still it's a fun thing

Looked like it worked maybe for a week if above comments are correct. Would have been good to know it was for such a limlted time. And odd that the promoter has stopped the dialogue after her first flurry.

Ha ha, I thought you scratched /licked off a whiskey flavoured piste ! Ski around a resort and getting slowly drunk.

Was there ever a full list of the 112 resorts on the map?
Any  brought one?
Really like the look of this but would like to know that the places I've already been can be scratched off.

Yeah I bought one for the wife. Where are you interested in knowing about?

Would just like to know the resorts to be honest? But i'd like to be able to scratch off Chamonix, L2A, Sauze d'oulx, Montegenevre, Pila, and a few others.

I was given one of these for Christmas. It's a great idea and the design looks smart. However, there are unfortunately several mistakes with the stats for each resort, and the selection of resorts shown on the map seems a bit random - e.g. several major resorts get missed off, while others with <30km slopes are included.

Thanks for the heads up. This is exactly why I'd like the list of resorts before purchase. Don't see the point unless I can scratch off all, if not the majority, of resorts that I have been to.
