[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Thanks for the responses so far.  I will add, our youngest is a toddler and not ready to be on skis this winter, so we wouldn't do a trip out west until she's big enough for lessons.  Otherwise, having one kid in a lesson would leave my husband and I having to split up with one squeezing in some runs while the other hangs with the youngest.

DH and I love to ski, and want it to be a big part of our family vacations.  An annual trip out west to ski is the goal, with local skiing when weather permits.  So for now, I want to focus on getting the kids on skis and comfortable for when they're a bit older.

To the Park City/Deer Valley posters, I do love PC, and it's definitely the easiest western resort to get to from here. [/quote]

PP here who shared about DS starting at 4 and now races - we did exactly this. You can learn the same thing locally as you do in PC. It is all about mechanics and muscles memory, literally doesn't matter how "big" the mountain is. Save your money when they are young and learning. DS probably has better mechanics for this reason.
