We made a quick trip to Lookout Pass. We were intrigued by it being on Idaho Montana state line. Gorgeous mountain and views. Kind of fun to purchase a snack in Idaho and eat it in Montana. Wish we would have had time to try skiing.
-
There was plenty of powder and lots of different runs. No lines for the lifts and generally not too crowded. Bought season passes for next year, can't wait to go back more often. Wish we hadn't waited until the end of the season to go.

New lift opens up a ton more terrain and alot more vertical. Best place to go when the powders deep! Next year when they open another chair will have as much terrain as Schweitzer! Have Fun!

Traveling with our two daughters from Texas in our RV. Late spring visit. May 31.First of all don't expect much in the way of signage or customer service when you find the trail or lodge. I had to call for directions and I had printed off the website details before trying to find out where I was supposed to be. The lodge is kind of run down and the folks inside (with a couple of exceptions) aren't too excited that you are there - and we were the only ones there! Wow - how do you handle a crowd? Biking folks are better than the restaurant / gift shop folks at noticing customers, but it still is not a convincingly genuine welcome. Bring your own food for the trail and you will be better off. Angus burger is a joke in the lodge and the grilled chicken is just a frozen treat. Worst failing of the "lodge" is the lack of any interesting or quality merchandise. A pin or two, some cheap bags, a few bad T shirts in errant sizes - this is really a pathetic gift shop and that is at the START of the season. What a lost revenue opportunity!The boys in the lodge might be a few sandwiches short of a picnic since no one even wanted to take an offer on giving us a ride back (what they normally do but on weekends only, until mid June when they are in full swing). Since we were there on a Thursday - there was no shuttle service. WOW guys you turned down the 50 to 100 bucks I would have been willing to pay to be picked up at the end of the trail and instead made me and my young family (7 and 9 year old girls) ride 10 miles down and 10 miles back up the trail to get back (the recommended shortened version). Did not even attempt to be interested in making 3 or 4 times as much as sitting in the lodge 'on the clock". Didn't even allow the offer!!! STUPID. So we spent 7 hours getting down the trail and back! Thanks - put us right at the limit of collapse for our two girls. Would have been great to bike down (1.7% declining grade on the way down - supposed to get picked up at the end - yes that would have been great but instead we had to pedal back - not too tough unless you are a little kid). Survived in tact thanks to lots of snacks and stretch breaks and my wife - and some tough Texas girls. I wouldn't try it otherwise.Now on to the trail - One of the most memorable times with my family in recent memory. Great trail. Exciting views and excellent historical markers and info. Tunnels were fascinating! Views were stupendous! Thanks to whom ever put this together and maintains it. Get some better lodge staff and real merchandise - you could have made $150 on my family if you put the gift shop at the end of the trail and had real merchandise and staff that cared. Woops!?Hints: Water, jacket (it gets hot and very cold a couple of times in the same day), snacks, food, sunglasses, sunscreen and a good headlight is manditory.

So it's not as fancy as other mountains in the area... but that's why I like it. The runs are beautiful and it has that small town feel. I would have given it an "excellent", but my board was stolen a few years back. Very disappointing, but I would still go back. Just be sure to keep an eye on your equipment and all will be fine!

Our family stays in Kellogg every year and we ski Lookout and Silver. Silver has the steep, Lookout has the deep. Also, Silver gets more wind than Lookout. It seems strange that Lookout, on the Bitterroot crest, has less wind than Silver, but it is consistently less. It also has more sun. And much better powder. Silver has more vertical, more expert slopes (really expert) and more lifts. But we have more fun at Lookout. Maybe it's because we can park so close, and bring powder skis as well as regular skis, so we can use what we like. Maybe it's because the intermediate and the expert skiers can take different trails down to the same lift. We stay in Kellogg, with Kellogg Vacation Homes. They have all kinds of homes and cabins, some with hot tubs. I-90 is always clear and we have had no problems driving to Lookout from Kellogg.

This is a no frills ski "resort" that is great for families..The prices are reasonable, they continually have more snow than mose resorts in Spokane area, and offer free ski school with quality instructors. Our kids went through it and it was fantastic..Waits at the lift can be long when the classes are in session

can not find a better, affordable ski area any where. Good mix of runs, nice lodge and great powder.

Their rates are the most competitive, and the snow was nice. I took my grandkids, 4 & 6. They had a good time. Compared to high speed quads, it's a let down, otherwise it's a winner.

Passing the the mountains at such a high elevation, the views, and the drive itself. In the summer, the ski area offers other ways to use the facility. I just drove there for the view and as a preview for winter, as this will be my first winter in the area
