You could ski for a month and not hit every trail. There really is nothing that i disliked. It was amazing watching my boys ski and the scenery blew me away. No ski lift lines either:)
Had a excellent private lesson with Pablo through the ski school. He is clearly a professional and at the end of the evening I made notes of everything he taught me. Get a pro lesson, ask for Pab or Pablo and you will enjoy your ski adventure.
Queues a problem when conditions are good. Plenty of room just now to go and look from the top and ride back down again - preserve your skis / boards
The wait for the tram was a pain. Once on top the view is spectacular. There is no easy way down except to download the tram which is ok. Wonderful extreme and expert skiing.
We took the tram to the top of Lone Peak on a clear day and it was a beautiful views. I would recommend it if you can. We took the tram back down and did not ski down.
We rented mountain bikes from the hotel we stayed at thinking we were just going for a sight seeing trip with some friends. But if you are a adrenalin junky you have to take the cable car to the top. The trail we took were hard but fun with a lot of obstacles. We stopped along the way down for breaks and sight seeing so it took us a couple of hours to get back. All wort it. My first time mountain biking and got hooked.
Great view on a clear day.Great place to ski down the mountain from.Wide open slopes, no lift lines.
Big Sky offers some of the best skiing in America. Zero lift lines, non-commercialized community. Skiing is good for everyone from beginners to advanced. There is always a ton of activities Mountain top, and a quaint meadow village with shopping, food, and additional activities. We visit every year in the winter - as much as we'd like to go explore more new places, Big Sky won our hearts and it's hard not to come back here!
Almost 11,000 feet in elevation. The tram ride is exciting and the view is breathtaking. Can ski down expert slopes, or walk around and enjoy the view then take the tram back down. An overlook point is at the top with a map shows all the surrounding mountain ranges. We were there this winter, I believe summer rides to the top are also available.
If you have the chance to go to the top (if it's not closed due to wind or weather) do it. The runs down are a bit rough, but the view is totally worth it.
