Btw, check your local ROSS stores if you guys are interested in the NIke Zoom Force Snowboard boots. Picked up a pair for $85, they had many designs.

Could I rent some gear there? My friends and I are going to be at Sierra. Thanks for anyone that can help me out.

Awesome, appreciate the info! Thanks, I'll definitely keep all those places and what to get in mind. I'm pretty excited to go out there for this first time. Hope I don't get too banged up, haha.Originally Posted by LORENander

you can rent gear out there. there should be a quite a bit of mom-and-pop places on the way there as well. not too sure how much more you'll save though.
as far as all the accessories you mentioned, try sports authority, REI, or sports basement. maybe even wal mart for some of that stuff. youll also want a balaclava (ski mask) or at least a bandana to cover your face. goggles are needed too. if youre planning to stay close to stateline for the weekend, theres a rite aid in south tahoe that has some cheap stuff if youre in a crunch for time. you can try looking for some deals on trusnow.com. wont be able to try them on til you actually get it, but theres some decent stuff there.
if you dont have snowboarding socks at least bring 1 or 2 pairs of long socks. i usually layer with a t shirt, thermal, another t shirt, then my jacket. if your jacket is thick enough you should be good.
