Ski Time
I am about to start looking into ski vacations. I am looking for a ski resort that has the ability to ski in and out the front door of your room. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know. It will definitely help with my search. The criteria I am looking for is that it needs to be kid-friendly, not a long drive from Austin or long plane ride, and it can accomodate my entire family. This will include 8 adults, 2 teenagers, and 2 boys. I will be searching for the dates during spring break. It is from March 13th through March 21st. We all went to Ruidoso, New Mexico one year and had a great time. We drove and the drive itself was exhausting. It was worth it, but this time I am leaning towards a short plane ride. Any tips? Any great locations? Anything will help.

Taos, NM. Great little village, about 10 hours from Austin. You can fly there fast. Great skiing for all levels. Nice little town. And there are a few resorts north of the Taos area as well.
If you want to head East, Smugglers Notch. Wonderful resort in VA. Wonderful area, and the skiing is great. Travel time is a little more involved.
Have a blast.
