[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Christmas is expensive everywhere. The best deals we've gotten are when Easter (and spring break) are in mid April and resorts have significantly reduced their prices.

A few options to consider:

Stay in Salt Lake City and drive to different resorts each day. There are at least 8 within about 45 minutes. Nice hotels in Salt Lake can be quite inexpensive. That way you can also book airfare and hotel together on a site like expedia which does tend to save money.

You can do the same thing in Colorado by staying in Dillon/Silverthorne/Frisco and driving to [b]Breck, Keystone or Copper[/b].

Try Tours de Sport for package deals.

Stay at lesser known resorts. Solitude/Brighton in Utah might be worth looking into. [/quote]

Good idea but these resorts are expensive.  You could consider Monarch, Granby Ranch or Eldora for more low key experience.  We have skied at Monarch near Salida, CO, and loved it.  Small mtn., all runs end in the same place so if you send your tweens or teens up on their own they will show up eventually.  There is no glam scene at these resorts though.  Great snow and nice runs.  Maybe small for the expert skiers though.[/quote]
