[quote=Anonymous]We are novice skiers but the past few years we have really enjoyed going to a local mountain with our kids, staying in a lodge and doing a "ski package" including lift tickets and ski rentals.  This year we are thinking of spending a weekend at a friend's condo in the Poconos and driving to a nearby mountain to ski, which means we'd get lift tickets but nothing else through the mountain.  We are thinking of renting our skis here before we go, to save money (instead of at the mountain). My question is how do I transport them - will they fit in the trunk of a car? Four sets of skis and poles - two adult, two child.  We do have bars on the roof of our car which run parallel to the length of the car, but not the crossbars. 
Also, I have a couple of questions re: how to dress.  I know layers, but I'm wondering how many. I plan to pack LL Bean long underwear (top and bottoms) - can we just put ski pants on top of the long underwear, or should we put a pair of sweatpants on before the snow pants. Ditto on the top - long underwear, and then a fleece pullover and then jacket - do I need another layer? Thanks for all tips, how to dress and otherwise.
