Please tell me, what’s more expensive, renting a cabin and share w/ a group of friends or the lift tickets, boards, boots, bindings, jacket, pants, etc. Even if you don’t have to rent a place, how much does it cost to buy the gear and getting lift tickets at a nice mountain?[/quote]
You can get barely used parabolic skis/bindings/boots/poles for under $200. Another $200 for all new jacket, pants, socks, gloves… for $500 you can get the equipment that should last you 5+ years. Another $500 will get you the annual pass at most places, if you know when and where to buy (since you are near-local you will know when and where to buy). Or if you like the snow that much you can sign up as an instructor and ride for free.
