Publisher's Note
Claire Walter - a long-time "budget skier" and acclaimed ski writer - has written the bargain guide that leads you to good skiing and snowboarding values across North America, and even on European slopes. Skiing on a Budget shows you how to stretch a buck, save a buck, even make a buck on the slopes. Here you'll find tips to make your whole trip a success. Learn how beginners often ski cheap - and sometimes free; secrets of getting the lowest-priced lift tickets; how to save on gear by renting, leasing and smart shopping; ways to make skiing a family affair, even for little ones; planning strategies to make vacation dollars go further; how to get your lodging for less; how to have fun - inexpensively - off the slopes; why small ski areas offer big fun and big savings; what economic clout - and camaraderie - forming or joining a group provides; what ski-area jobs can pay off in ski time; and the joys of low-cost cross-country skiing. Best of all, saving money skiing doesn't mean cutting back on excitement. Even top ski areas offer dollars-off enticements, and Walter points you toward them.
