Followed this thread with interest. Like the OP I am nowwhere near ski locations. I am in Alabama. I am from UK and was lucky enough to go to Italy on some school trips where I learned to Ski,. I am desperate to start ski-ing with my daughters (5 and 4). I have spent a long time googling and encounter all the big resorts such as steamboat which priced out around 7grand before factoring in flights which I just can't do. I have looked at a few days in Gatlinburg but read what felt like endless negative reviews this morning about waiting for over an hour in lines for the cable car, confusing things about services and rude staff which has put me off a bit. I did find a place to Ski in Alabama believe it or not but then quickly saw it hasn't reopened following Covid. Other results when I looked for Skiing in the south was West Virginia which is an 11 hour drive. Which is fine, but I am not having WV being in the south, lol.
I'd love for some recommendations for a young family, wife and two kids with no experience for some kind of starter trip. I would want a minimum 3 days skiiking. Ideally not more than say $4000.
Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to read this and answer.
