[quote=Anonymous]Part of the issue is that skiing in the US has become a corporate money suck. All the fun has been taken out of it. Fake base villages, $500 per kid per day just to get them into a lesson, terrible cafeteria-level food, unhappy low-paid employees, etc. It is 10x more enjoyable to ski in Europe. You can get a sit down 3 course meal for lunch for $18. The lack of trees at altitude make the scenery much more stunning. They get more sunny days. Lift tickets are cheap ($50/day). All day lessons for kids for less than $100. The best part about living in DC is that you can fly out of Dulles at 5pm, sleep on the overnight flight, and be skiing in France or Switzerland before lunch time.[/quote]
