I've been lucky enough to go skiing and snowboarding a few times when I was younger, and it is totally worth it. Although it was way more affordable back then.
My ex bf last year was a big skier and got me into it. I bought a snowboard because it was a bit cheaper and I already knew how to skateboard, so teaching myself was mostly pretty straightforward
The biggest running resort in CT charges $75 on weekends but $40 on weekdays (and there's a student discount so it's only $30 on weekdays for me). It was immediately a lot of fun, so I worked a couple hours extra a week to afford going on my weekday off. Defo not feasible for a lot of people but it's a great experience if you can manage it
If you look around a lot of places have similar weekday passes and nighttime passes (usually like 4-10pm) that are way cheaper. Differs wildly resort to resort ofc
