    Unless you live near a ski resort or involved in the ski industry. All locals ski rather cheaply. They eat at home, do not need the hotel, get to use their local season passes all winter, and get incentives and huge discounts from ski gear companies through their friends and relatives who work at the resort. Kids get taught to ski in school.

    Wowsers! That's about what I'd expect to pay for a family vacation, but of course I'd be including the cost of flights and hotel rooms. At least the food cost doesn't seem THAT bad, if it covers 3 meals a day x 10 days, and included cocktails as well.
