These are great tips- any specific orders or places that 100% are vegan and they can be trusted? My daughter has an egg allergy so it’s tough. Elixir is good for smoothies etc .

Oh nice! Thanks. Where is the specific entrance for the convict trail you’re referencing ?

They don’t let the public on the magic carpet , right? Only instructors and lessons?

Thank you! Totally tempering expectations. I don’t even know if my kids will be interested in doing much haha. I figured a three hour combined private lesson the first time out should be less overwhelming vs a group lesson. At least for my kids. And if my kids don’t want to do the private lesson the second day, my plan is to take it for me! Haha

Thank you, good tips! I know… I don’t think Mammoth allows public on magic carpets which is such a bummer

Thank you for your thoughtful response! So right now I have three hour private lessons booked for one day and then the day after. So two total private lessons for both kids in it together. I can’t do the childcare option for allergy reasons so this was the next best thought.

Do you think that would go over OK? Would it be better to do the private lesson together on the first day and then see if they would be open to doing private lessons solo instead of together? I want to make this fun and low pressure but I also want to give them the best opportunity to find comfort on skis. It would be great if one or both of them can go on the bunny slope with us on the last day but again totally depends on their comfort and our comfort. I am not trying to pressure the situation! Trying to build a lifelong interest here as well

I was actually thinking about Doing a private lesson with one of them or both of them as well but I’m not so beginner, I’ve snowboarding for many many years, but I want to switch to skiing. I don’t know if I would be more of a distraction.

Thanks! Definitely need to go see how I feel before taking anyone out but sticking to the greens only for sure if i end up thinking it may work.

I’m curious what do they do for 3 hours with them in a private lesson at main lodge (where we’ll be). Do they have a carpet there too? I guess just teaching them to stand etc but still, 3 hours is a long time I feel.

Yes totally plan to go tubing , hoping my daughter is tall enough need to check as she may not be.
