Hit the Slopes at Big Sky Resort

Big Sky Resort, which boasts some of the "Biggest Skiing in America," is located about an hour south of Bozeman. The slopes are well-known for their abundance of snow, with an annual average of 400 inches. Thousands of skiers and snowboarders visit the resort during the winter. Nonetheless, with 5,750 skiable acres, there's plenty of room to turn.

Visiting Big Sky gives you the complete resort experience. Big Sky offers the crème de la crème of a Montana downhill experience, from the heated eight-person lifts to the energetic base of the mountain filled with events, restaurants, and après-ski entertainment. But Big Sky isn't the only ski destination worth visiting in Montana; several of the state's best ski resorts offer similar terrain for downhill adventures. Lost Trail Powder Mountain, near the Idaho border, is a local favorite. In the north, Whitefish Mountain Resort provides spectacular views of Glacier National Park. Other popular destinations, such as Montana Snowbowl and Bridger Bowl, are easily accessible from Montana's university towns.
