Hello all,
I'm finally making it out west for the first time. We're going to Tahoe end of January and coming back the first week in Feb, hopefully with good enough health/energy/legs to attend the summit at Sugarloaf. Having never done this, and having not been on a plane since I was 8, I could use a little advice on making the trip go smoothly.
I'm the typical ski bum that just throws his stuff in the back of the pick up, so I don't have much experience with the luggage that many skiers use. I don't know what is good and what is not. What does the majority use for transporting skis/boots/poles etc? Should I get a hard ski tube or will a softer bag do the trick? What is the best way to carry boots, is buying a transpack or something similar worth it or should I just cram them into my other carry on?
Any advice is much appreciated, thanks in advance!
