absolutely no problemat all. You might get a few sled haters giving you stink eye. But I and my kids wore klim gear skiing for years.

Other than the dirty looks from the pamphlet warrior skiers that miss the irony of the massive ski resort you'll be fine. Although I feel like I should tell you that for the price of a day skiing you could go sledding for less and have more fun.

Crystal ridge can satisfy both sledding and skiing!

How is this different then wearing your $700 gear and $15000 sled and smashing into and over trees ??? Cost of doing business, lol.
