$300? Thats like a cheap room for one night. Thats only the room, you have ~$250/DAY in lift tickets.. then you may have equipment rentals if you don't have your own skis/boots and whatever other gear you may want like gloves, helmet/goggles, etc.
Thats the bare minimum. You can easily spend 1k per day staying at a resort on the mountain.
Damn I had no idea. So they can afford to hire Americans.
