ssh-bit confused thought it was being planned as a 2 week trip.Would be a bit concerned as surely the travelling/jet lag,possible acclimatisation,would use up valuable days??

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

snowskisnow, I was thinking that we'd do it as a 9-day trip (Friday evening to Sunday evening). However, if the concensus is a two-week trip, I'm fine with that, too. I've modified to poll to be the week you'd like it to start. Does that work?

Perfect;the duration can be decided later.I think the most important is to establish its a go,in principle;and get some firm options down.Any thoughts on the accomadation front as yet?what works in the states;one place=big block booking,or a few smaller places?

snowskisnow, either a block at a hotel or a series of condos, depending on party size, is the likely outcome. In some cases, we can actually do both so that, for example, families of five (like mine and yours!) would have condos while others would have hotel rooms.

That's what I want SCSA, so teachers and kids can come. Maybe even wives!

Good morning Chris,
It's really the best time.
1) The best snow. It can be the worst year, but there's always great snow during that time.
2) Lots of apres going on. Live bands @ Red Tail, spring skiing is in full swing.
3) Great weather. It's March, typically the snowiest month. But you'll see more bluebird days, then clouds, that's for sure.
4) Lots of people watching, the town is full. Spring break, lots of skiers from all over seem to come during that time. Crowds? Nah, not really. But there's lotsa people around, so you get to meet lots of others!
Go for the 3rd week in March folks, it's the best time.
Make it a great day!
Be cool,

Anytime between 17th MArch and Easter weekend. Condo would suit us best too.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

I happened to have done a bit of research into the third week in March some time ago since I was thinking of making the trip to Colorado by myself the same time.
I found out that most flight prices went up on Thursday 17th March so if you plan your trip for 10 days (or two weeks) starting on the 16th March, you may get a much better deal. Just a thought.
For me anytime around then is fine. My wee one is still wee enough that I can take him out of school.
Anyway, skiing IS education
