You may contact Bill with inquiries but do not ask to make arrangements for lessons other than through the ski school. Why?

Information/pricing for full-day private lessons: Make arrangements at www.keystoneresort.com (Skimybest.com is not a Vail Resorts website.)

Also note that Bill--or any instructor-- cannot be reserved for group lessons.

If renting equipment (not included with lesson), consider renting it at the resort. That way, if an equipment adjustment is needed it can be done with less interruption to your lesson. Get skis, boots, and poles (some rental agents say poles are not needed for beginner adults--not so; I prefer to teach with them). The company rentskis.com: exits has locations near lift bases at most of the Vail Resorts ski areas and you can reserve your gear online--useful as at busy times equipment may be limited in some sizes or types and wait-times for fitting your gear can be less.

If you will rent equipment at a resort, arrive at the rental shop for fitting at least one hour before your lesson, more on busy days such as holidays, school vacations. Or rent it the afternoon or evening before your lesson--check for shop hours.

For more considerations on private lessons, and for comparing pros and cons of private lessons versus group lessons, go to Why Take a Lesson from a Professional Ski Instructor and scroll down to "Private vs. Group Lesson".
