hey yo. I'm an officer in the ski/snowboard club at the University of Minnesota and our winter break trip this year is Jan 4-11 to Crested Butte, CO. They're a super good deal if you're looking to get out west for cheap, and you don't have to be a student here (or anywhere) to come along. (Just 18+!!) /We're also going to Jackson Hole in March

Its $530 (+$90 for transportation, leaving from the U)
& Includes:
-4 Days lift pass
-5 nights slope side accommodations

And then there's usually concerts/ night events / booze. All in all they're a really rad time.
Let me know if you're interested/ have any questions!

Sick deal! I go to UW Oshkosh and am a member of the SNS club here...we're going to Park City later in January, but I'll let everyone know. You can never get enough skiing! How many spots are available?

No set number! We'll fill two buses for sure (~120) people, and then if there's enough people we filled a third one last winter!

If I wasn't going to be at a tech convention in Vegas that week I would totally be tagging along. Hoping to hit up some big resorts west of Denver on the way back though.
