Say What You See - Can you name the 25 ski areas?

 
This week we've created a new way to waste some of your spare time before next season. Can you name the 25 ski areas in this huge dose of Photoshoppery? ...

Click on the pic to see the full-size version
I'll give you this tip: They're all good-sized ski areas, most of them are from the US, there's 2 from Canada, 2 from France and 1 from each of Australia, New Zealand, Norway, Italy and Switzerland. Feel free to guess away in the comments section.

    For sure. Anyway, I didn't guess until I could sightread "Turbo" on the bottle...


    Maybe a hint for the last remaining? Thought about Loveland and Buck Hill but I'm pretty sure that's wrong...

    Try the skier with the cash, it's a French resort and the man is a famous royal who had an incredibly bad year in 1979. The other two are US resorts
