Big Sky
Big Sky offers one of the biggest lift-served vertical drops in the USA, and the area has won numerous awards for its uncrowded slopes and virtually non-existent lift lines. Big Sky features 3,812 acres of steeps, chutes, long cruisers and bowls and it's all buried under more than 33 feet of annual snowfall.
Big Sky's tram rises to the top of Lone Mountain and the Big Couloir run down from the tram has pitches of about 42 degrees. Even steeper is Castro's Shoulder, with a 50 degree pitch.
When you are done skiing Lone Mountain, relax in their cozy and friendly mountain village. There are numerous accommodation options for all tastes and budgets, including the slopeside Huntley Lodge, Shoshone and Snowcrest Lodge condominiums. Also, enjoy other outdoor exursions that include Sleigh Ride dinners and ice skating. Want some indoor comfort? Big Sky has several lounges and a spa to finish off any day.
Don't miss a day trip to Yellowstone National Park, only 18 miles from Big Sky. Explore the park on a snowmobile to see buffalo herds, elk, bald eagles and the famous geysers.
