re: Ski Gear

For just about the cost to rent a helmet, you can buy your own.

For coats and pants, we got alot of gear off of eBay, Facebook Marketplace and a Ski and Snowboard Swap group. Great deals can be found if you're patient.

I got my daughter a pair of Helly Hansen pants for $22, I got a 4 in 1 North Face 550 ski jacket with zip in puffer vest and puffer coat for $135. Found pair of Shady Rays goggles with the magnetic pop on lens with 4 lenses for $60.

As others have said, everyone will need base layers. How many depends on if your accommodations has a washer and dryer.

I would definitely invest in a good par of Smartwool Ski Socks.
