Weekdays mean work or school and the necessary chores of everyday living.
The reality of our hectic lifestyle is that most people with families are too tired most nights to take advantage of night-skiing opportunities. And even on weekends, it's tough for many families to get away for whole days. The other truth of the matter is that most skiing families simply have to get as much skiing value for our dollar as we possibly can. Okemo Mountain in Ludlow, Vermont, has a reputation for being a very pricy mountain. The beautiful ski homes and condos that line some of the lower slopes don't look as though they come cheap.
