Skiing with a K5

I have a k5 I want to use as a ski trip truck this season. I need to drive 20-30 min to the mountains with 4-5 people and skis, and there's no way all that is going to fit in the cab. Does anyone have a bumper mounted ski carrier they recommend (or any other solution?)

The truck is the 77 on the left in the picture. It's still pretty clean so I'd prefer not to drill holes for a rooftop cargo box.

Re: Skiing with a K5

Lol I definitely need a suburban. I've been looking for one for years.

I know this isn't the for sale forum, but if anyone has one PM me lol. Looking for diesel and manual, a mostly complete interior, and relatively affordable. Rust and body damage are ok, as are mechanical problems

I'd also still appreciate any tips you may have on a ski rack
