Ski.com's New Year's Resolutions
As you’re settling into New Year’s resolutions and planning how you’ll accomplish all that you've pledged, perhaps you're getting a bit overwhelmed? And after all, there's always 2020 to look back on.
Good news! A ski or snowboard trip checks off a lot of common goals on those resolution lists.
- Need more quality time with your loved ones? There’s nothing quite like watching your kids catapult from the bunny slopes to the blues. Just make sure to keep it in your own household in 2020!
- Want to lose weight but need a proverbial carrot? How about ski conditioning to prep for a summer ski trip to Chile?
- And obviously, you want to save money. Ski.com feautres incredible deals on flights, lodging, lift tickets and everything else you need to make your dream ski trip happen. And then there’s that old saying, “Travel is the only thing you can buy that makes you richer.”
For a little extra inspiration, we've put together a list of some resolutions that will free your inner child and allow you to focus on staying in the moment in 2021. We may not check everything off this list, but dreaming of skiing is half the fun right?

Start a ski journal

Commit to snagging first chair at least once

Spend at least 10 days on the mountain

Try a new winter sport

Do you!

This year, make time for yourself by putting the kids in ski school and spending some time at the spa with a friend or significant other.
Sleep in on a powder day

Drink more hot chocolate

Here’s to a snowy 2021, filled with goggle tans, faceshots, and fresh tracks! #ToTheMountains
