Another sad story of a Midwest kid just trying to get in more skiing. Any tips?

This. Windells is overpriced af.

You will save money and have a better time....and probably learn more doing this.

But you do you man! If you want it go for it.

I wasnt saying Windells is overpriced, I’m just saying if money is an issue public park is your best option.

That's what I'm saying....also it is pretty fucking expensive for the duration....at least for me....if you have extra money be my guest! Majority of people it's just too much

Windells seems sick as fuck imo. Ive never been, but if you have the loot, it seems awesome. Especially on a limited amount of time and less limited budget.

Spring pass and public park seems dope as fuck and better on the budget though.

I’m from the Midwest too and discovered Windells Edits like in late 2015. All I wanted was to go there despite it being hella expensive. I got a job as a grocery store bagger making like 8 an hour and let my parents keep my debit card hidden from me until I had the camp and plane cost covered (or unless I absolutely needed it). It took a little while and a little willpower yes. In the end though, Session 2 2017 deadass have gotta be my absolute best ski memories to date.

Just get a job somewhere. Ask for parents to give you all their loose change. Fast food places are usually always hiring

Tim Windells sold windells two years ago and isn't involved with camp anymore doggy.
MHSSC seems dope, head coach Jonah Elston is a boss. However, the MHSSC lane doesn't have a rope tow so you would be hiking the park all week unless there's enough snow to lap the chairlift. The Windells lane has a rope tow and is higher on the glacier so you can always lap the chair. You get what you pay for. MHSSC is sick but it doesn't have all of the extra's that windells does, like the super tramps and skateparks that you can use everyday after skiing.

Damnnn son, you've got some serious catching up to do. Have you seen Windell's Edits from back in the day, like 2009-2012? Shit used to be a big deal when a new Windell's edit would drop
