New Years in Steamboat. Sounds great. I've skied Wilmot, Cascade and Chestnut. But by far, the best place around is Granite Peak skigranitepeak.com. It's four hours away, but has a high speed lift and a few pretty lengthy runs (midwest-comparative). We spend the night at the Holiday Inn. Enjoy your trip!
Helmets? I got my 1st helmet last year. I too wanted to set a good example for my 12 year old, who had been wearing a helmet for 6 years. The helmet provides good warmth and they have ear covers. I got mine at Sports Authority. But, this year I find myself with extra time on my hands, so I bought Skis and Boots from SKIS.COM. It was a good experience. I recommend you shop around (Two Seasons, Viking and Vertical Drop).. then buy online. It may be crappy for the local business owner, but I saved a ton.
