What’s the Pack’s recommendation for a ski vacation this winter? I’m looking for a place with a lot of greens and blues and a good spot for my 5 year old to learn. We’re willing to go wherever. We went to Whistler in 2020, so not there again.
Now you obviously know your kid better than I. But if you told me I had to take a random five year old skiing, I would start by taking them to the place that makes snow in Mentone, Alabama before I spent the money to fly them out west for a high dollar trip only to find out they hate it. But that is just my two cents.

What was your thought on Whistler?
I'm probably the odd ball on here but I love Winter Park. It has a ton of trails and both peaks have multiple paths down without having to ski blacks if you don't want to.
What a horrible suggestion…..it’s too similar to Whistler.Sugar Mountain in Boone/Banner Elk, NC is a pretty cool place that’s drivable if you’re in the south
Deer Valley? The Montage. They’ll have your skis/poles on the snow, help you take your boots off. Just be warned, you’re family will never want to go anywhere else again. Skiing can be ok.Thank you. Any recommendations on ski in/ski out lodging?
I went to Angel Fire New Mexico, flew into Albequerque and just rented a large SUV. It was a great trip as this was my first one. Had a great time, they had a pretty easy setup from the lift to the different spots. The long green run was maybe 25 minutes long. Had a great time.
Took my almost 5yo to WP this winter. The Discovery Park area is a perfect place for a beginner.
She had a half-day private lesson with four friends. The second and third days she was having a blast on greens.
