Depend how far east/west you go. Right now I am in Courchevel, France. If you come here to ski, there in no point in bring ing your own skis, because for about 20 euros a day, you get last years top of the line models from Rossignol, Atomic, Head, Nordica, etc. My experience with skiing in the states is that they use 2-4 year old equipment that been worn down pretty badly and usually costs 30-40 bucks a day...
Book your flight a few months in advance and it can be found for less than 500 bucks round trip... Hotels at 1650 can be had for about 140 euros a night. At 1350 you can probably find them for ~70 euros...
