V1 Ski Sites and codes

Post by smudgersmith218 »

Gents,

I am having some problems correctly identifying a number of V1 Ski sites to the code names used within the 3 Group ORB, example

BLACKCAP - BLACKBIRD D - ROBIN - IRIS

I am hoping someone on the forum may hold the key to the codes!!

Any help appreciated.

Regards
