[quote=Anonymous]We do this trip annually. Yes, it's freaking expensive but it's my DH and kid's greatest joy in life so...here we are. We save by buying the Epic pass every year, using airline and hotel points and eating in most nights. But it's still expensive. And you don't want to totally cheap out on gear. It makes a huge difference in whether your kids will actually enjoy their time if they are warm and dry! I do highly recommend making it a driving trip for first timers. You can rent the equipment very inexpensively here and bring it (go get the rentals now. We have used Ski Center in Gaithersburg for many years). We love Vermont. Okemo and Stowe both have great ski schools. It is about 7.5-8 hours. We make couple stops along the way. You can also do Seven Springs in PA or one of the NY mountains like Gore or Hunter (just tend to be very crowded). [/quote]
