[quote=Anonymous]Posting here after reading as many threads as I could. 10 year old would like to learn to ski (is an average ice skater if that matters). I had looked into this last year when she was in 4th grade - did all the research/calls etc for the PA 4th grade option and due to health issues couldn't do it. I am trying to map this out and had some questions -

1) Get the WV kid pass and go to Canaan or Timberline - 3 hrs away so maybe doable without night stay if we are willing to have a long day. I like this option due to the included child day rental/lift tickets.

2) The other option is to get the epic 2-3 day pass. In which case I could opt for slightly closer locations like Liberty and Roundtop.

Both options to rent equipment (skis, boots, poles) locally for a day for adult to start with Buy ski wear/helmet/goggles/socks locally.

Which is the best option (are there other options or things to consider) to try out something new. We would take a lesson 1 day and try and then return 1 or 2 times if we like it. Then do it right next year onwards with renting equipment early and getting a season pass. Just trying to keep it simple and reasonable (comparatively) the first year.

How did you start with this sport? All suggestions welcome.
