The airfare is what makes it expensive. For us at least, it essentially makes the trip cost 60% more than what a Colorado or Utah trip would cost.

Wanted to ask where you're flying from. When I price tickets from Boston or Providence I typically find airfares to Europe pretty comparable to going West. I've priced tickets to Vancouver, Calgary, Boise, Boseman, SLC, Denver, Zurich, and Geneva this year. Denver is typically least expensive followed by SLC, but I can't find inexpensive tickets anywhere -- at least not at any time when we can use them.

That topic came up when I was in Boston last weekend at a dental convention talking with one of my former classmates about dream trips that we should do one day. Apparently CMH is already sold out through their 2012-13 season and the majority of their "primetime" for the 2013-14 season!! :eek: And after hearing what a week goes for, my wife's comment was somethine to the extent of: Well that will mean that i'm going to get to go on one heck of a "girls trip" somewhere if that boy's trip happens ;) I think the line that my friend told me was something like "if we're lucky it will cost 'only' about a grand a day!" ;) :lol:

I went heli skiing in 2001 with CMH in Revelstoke with my sister and dad. (thanks, Dad).

Could never have afforded it myself and will probably be a loooong time before I can.
