So about $500/day without including any gear costs.
Yeah, golf and skiing are going to find growth to be difficult in the future. I picked up RCR Rockies passes for my kids this year because they were only $20 each. We might make a weekend trip out to Kimberley this year but that will be the only skiing we do. I'll probably go for the cheap days at Norquay just to get out. The annual passes are actually not that expensive but when you have kids playing hockey, doing cheerleading/gymnastics and swimming lessons on weekends it is tough to hit the mountains.
