I did it. Do It. Best decision I ever made. Just packed my car with everything I could fit and drove. I had friends that I already knew though so that helped. I struggled for a bit with no job, but I had a pass so that's all that mattered. My parents were super supportive too so that helped. Now I'm skiing every day and going to school sometimes and working at night. Not a bad gig. Oh yeah and partying too. Can't forget that.

Night jobs, aka, night janitor, bussing tables etc. You work during the day, especially at a resort you get fucked. Lifties are handing chairs when theres three feet of fresh. Also jobs in the park aren't bad because they don't need you on powder days and on other days you ride the park and fix it as you go

Valet was my best job at a resort so far It paid out the ass and I saved my paychecks cuz i was living off tips and I got to ski free also if you work for the resort many offer Employee housing which is usually pretty damn cheap and right at the resort.

Volunteer for a resort one day a week to get a pass. I hang out in a bear suit with little kids on Mondays for a pass to 14 resorts. Then find a restaraunt job at night. That way you can ski all day every day(except for your one volunteer day) and get fed and make money at night.
