I taught lessons at COP, mostly to get a free lift pass.

Now, I can't really justify teaching my kids for a few reasons:

1. Living in Edmonton means that it's a 4 hour car ride just to a reasonable hill/mountain.
2. The cost of lift tickets is just absurd.
3. Hotels too

I am not spending $1500 on a weekend ski trip when my wife hates it and just wants to spend time in the lodge, and I could probably find a budget mexico week for only $500 more.
