Don’t plan anything around ski Apache. They don’t always get good snow.
Save your money and ski Colorado.
I've never been in a lift line at Red River. It's basically the best town to stay in. Short drive to some of the best extreme terrain in the country.
The fact that you're driving means there really isn't any advance planning needed. No snow at Apache? Go where there is snow. Taos, Santa Fe, Red River or Angel Fire.

Good to hear the Vail resorts along I70 arent Covid stupid. All last years trip to MtCB the workers were all incessant…”pull up your mask” while standing in line. Workers were polite about it but incessant.

Please, whatever you do, dont go to Ski Apache for your first time. They have run that place into the ground. Workers are rude, snow has sucked for a long time, and even with snow making there are only like 4-5 runs. Plus its as expensive as Colorado.
We have a house there, and I grew up skiing there. Even with a free place to stay, we will always choose somewhere else to go for skiing. Ski Apache sucks.

Vail has a very good beginners area for kids learning how to ski. My kids were 5 and 8 when we went, they learned to ski on that trip, the mountain is big enough to have good slopes for adults as well.
My only knock on Park City was there was not a good kids area. The mountain and trails are for the good/advanced skiers. I loved it, but it was not good for young kiddos
