[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our family (2 adults, 3 kids) would like to do a ski trip out west next year over Christmas or spring break. We are all beginner skiers and don't need the most challenging runs, and would be happy with an easier mountain with ski lessons. Is there a smart way to book this trip - a package deal that includes lodging, rentals and lift tickets? Thanks. [/quote] Don't know how old your kids are or where you live. But in Arlington, MLK Day is always a four-day weekend. So, we take the kids out of school for a travel day and fly to Denver. Drive to Keystone, where they always have great deals that weekend. Put the kids in ski school -- by Tuesday, the "group" lessons consist of just the two of them. Pro tip: Rent your gear somewhere along I-70, not at the resort. The airfare to Denver used to be cheap. The lessons were about $1,000. The hotel was pretty affordable. Great location. Maybe the drought will be over by next year.[/quote]
