[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Park City is so "fancy" and a little annoying imo and overpriced with overbearing tourists. My kids learned to ski in Winter Park (not a bad drive from Denver) and the ski school was affordable, the area is very pretty too. Devil's Thumb Ranch is beautiful to go cross country skiing as well (we did that while kids had lessons)[/quote]

We LOVE winter park for the tree skiing.  Not good for beginners but your green / blue learner can do the run and the more advanced group can dip in and out of the trees if you’re comfortable with it.

I’d advise against Jackson hole unless you plan to outsource the learner via ski school entirely.  The Tetons are not really good for beginners and as a mid/advanced skier in my late 30’s, it felt too advanced for me.  Tons of blues but it’s really a black or double black on the top third with a lazy green at the bottom, so averages to a blue (look up the French translation).  Not good for a family trip unless everyone is advanced, IMO. [/quote]
