Hi,
Would appreciate some advice on a good choice of destination for my son and
I to have our first ski trip. He will be 5 by the time I want to go in 2/04
for a 3 night trip. He has never been and I have skied in places like
Kirkwood, Big Mountain, Ski Apache before.
What is the best kid-friendly place to go for a not-too-expensive time?
Thanks!

I think Breckenridge is a great place to go. They have a great kids
ski school on Peak 8. The town of Breckenridge is super nice. There
is a lot to do there. The nightlife is a lot of fun as well. Main
Street has a lot of shops too. Peak 8 in Breckenridge has a good ski
school for teenagers.

Not sure if you wanted to stay local to where you were, but Copper is
hands down one of the best family places to ski. The terrain is
naturally segregated for each skill level. For cheaper acoommodations,
stay in Frisco, Dillon, or Silverthorne and drive (or ride the free bus)
to the mountain.
