snowskisnow, just to be clear, for liability reasons, only the adults can join the ESA for the instruction during the day. The younger folks, of course, can enjoy ski school and other activities during the day, and join for evening activities with the ESA.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Unlikely I think, Fox.
I missed the 2003 one because I found the EpicSki site a couple of weeks too late - we'd just booked all our holidays. I missed the 2004 one because of my daughter being born (ok, I have to accept some blame there  ). This year it didn't seem feasible to take a 1-year-old and I'm not sure that dragging a 2-year-old along next year will be fair on her either (or that feasible).
I think I'm destined to never go on one of these things. Maybe 2010!?!

Is that physical or mental age?

snowskisnow, I heard back from Nolo this morning: the minimum age to participate in the instruction is 18. I would suggest taking advantage of the great ski schools at Snowbird and/or Alta for your kids while you enjoy the ESA. They have great programs there, and your kids will have a good time while they learn, too...

Not sure about the start/finish times. In the past we have hit the slopes around 9am, and finish on the slopes around 3.30-4. Then after that there are video review sessions (exact time varies), and an afternoon talk, which started this year at 5.30

comprex, nope, that's what a lot of us did the last time. The only thing is we will be getting good discounts staying at the resort, and I would have to say that one of the things which was great about this year was that everyone was staying slopeside.
Expect an announcement VERY SOON.

slikedges, well, it looks like we may have a group from here who want to stay on for a total of 10-14 days, so if I get an idea of who is in, then I can make a few suggestions (I think I may have already mentioned going up to Jackson Hole)

Very good, we'll hold you to it. Do you expect the announcement to include the name of a bootfitter associated with the Academy?

comprex, if I could answer that question, I would.
BE PATIENT.
