I desperately want to ski Vail for the last week it's open (April 8-15) but I want to spend no more than $3500 dollars. My group has three adults and one child (who skis free). I want a five-day ticket for one adult and a child, a rental car, a flight from Baltimore, MD, and lodging close to the slopes. Any recommendations? Also, if you wish, I would like to know from a Vail veteran where the best places to hit would be. We can ski any terrain, but don't prefer steeps. Thank you in advance for any answers!

the main crucial function of a ski, in determining its overall performance in powder, is the ski's underfoot width (the width of the ski at its slimmest element, in many circumstances around the section the place the boot is). I stay and ski on the East Coast, yet have additionally skied in Utah and Colorado in deep powder. I chosen to convey my skis with me on those journeys, that are twin-suggestions ---no longer meant for extremely lots powder snowboarding--- with an 80 3 mm underfoot. however powder skis in many circumstances have an underfoot of a minimal of 100mm, my 83mm underfoot accomplished very properly. in the experience that your skis are extremely old, unshaped, with an extremely small underfoot of decrease than 70mm, then i might recommend renting shaped skis, yet no longer unavoidably powder skis. in case you have an underfoot of around 80mm, then ski with those at Vail. probability is, in case you have in basic terms skied device made, you will initially be stunned at how perplexing powder is to ski. as quickly as you get slightly experience even if, that's extremely relaxing. in case you employ powder skis, that have an completely diverse experience than everyday skis, you would be changing up alot of factors of your snowboarding ---no longer in basic terms the situations yet additionally the skis, that's risky. for this reason, i desire to recommend which you convey your everyday skis which you employ for device packed snow, to ski the powder ---as long as they're around 80mm underfoot. as quickly as you get some experience interior the powder, attempt demoing some fat skis to work out the style you fare. there is likewise the factor of climate : powder skis are with the help of no potential the suited for once you're no longer snowboarding powder. So, in case you recognize that there will be a superb volume of unpolluted which you will ski on a daily basis, then which would be a superb reason to employ them. yet probability is, that isn't ensue. For you, i might reccomend bringing your individual skis, granted they have a superb underfoot, and ski the pow in those. have exciting!
