Southwest Airlines has a deal running $50 to boise round trip. We just booked out tickets for Jan 15-18th.

I also spoke to Mona at the Praire Inn and she is still giving kiters $10 off just tell her or put on the reservation "snowkite"

Anyone is welcome to join us...I can't wait I love Idaho!!!

I presume you'all are going to rent a car too? I'd be interested in sharing that expense to cheapen this even more.

$140 is still a pretty good deal....

Meadow's day price $57 x 4 = $228 (without lodging)

Boise - 4 days snowkiting
Airfare $140 (or $80-$120 to drive)
Lodging $72 ($288.30 split by 4 people)
Car - $55 ($55 a day split by 4 people)

Total for 4 days of snowkiting $267...that's pretty damn cheap

Yeah, I'm banking on driving since we can make the call last minute when forecast looks good. Hopefully that'll minimize the skunk factor. You guys scored a killer deal though.

Also, if you take into account time at airport, time renting car, time driving from Boise the difference in flying vs driving is probably less than 4 hours anyway.

The 2nd Wind Crew is looking into renting the IPS Skate shuttle bus for one of the Snowkite Event Weekends in Idaho.
The shuttle should be able to realistically transport a 12-16 people with their gear.

Stay posted for any of you who may be interested in a bus ride from Hood River to Idaho and back.
