I am in the same boat. So far it has proven to be quite good just after spending reasonable time on the site.

when you go out you want to appropriately. I'm an instructor and i cant tell you how many times I have had students that weren't dressed right. they were very cold and we spend half of the lesson inside. The second thing is that I hope you take a ski lesson. i would not try to teach yourself because i have seen a lot of people get hurt that way. Just follow these guidelines and you should be fine. Good Luck!

Same here as well. I'm making my third ski trip in a couple of weeks to park city.

Last two times i went I had somebody else make most of the arrangements. This time I've had to do it myself.

Also this time kids are going so its gonna be a bit different.
