[quote=Anonymous]So we ski cheaply. I really don’t think it’s worth skiing around here - bad snow, icy, expensive expensive…but once a year we fly to Utah/Vegas and go to a small ski resort. Kids 12 and under have a free lift ticket, rentals in town are $30/day/skier and the equipment us not painful to use, and we also use airbnb for a place off the mountain so we can do other day trips.

It’s not the same quality of skiing as the results near salt lake or Colorado, but it’s completely sufficient for my family and waaaay better than the east coast. It isn’t extremely expensive. We use points on airfare, Airbnb is about $800-900 for the week, and the car rental is the most expensive thing (like $450 through Costco). The lift ticket is $29-50 for the adults, free for kids, as I said, and that’s about it.

I have taken my kids to Liberty, whitetail, Bryce…maybe good to get them used to the idea but none are a multiple-trip kind of place. Check out the power pass resorts - they are all cheap (https://www.thepowerpass.ski/)

Also, the salt lake resorts have their own deals. For Brighton, I think kids under 10 are free, for example.

Good luck! [/quote]
