Skied the entire Mountain and loved every moment. Snow on day 3 but we found great spots even without new snow before. No matter the weather you can find perfect runs.
Family who were not regular skiers had terrific instructions with Sue and great service with both Black Tie and Grizzly Outfitters! NO
LINES EVER! I love Big Sky, Thanks Liftopia.

For anyone but advanced or expert stay on Big Sky 90% of the time. Moonlight is beautiful but most the Blue and green runs are glorified cat trails. The Headwaters and Snowfields off the peak are the real deal but you can have the rest along with it's on average 10 degrees colder tempeture on thier north facing slopes (maybe desired in the spring)Big Sky is definitely over priced but when in Rome...

Big Sky is pretty cool but the price is high even on liftopia. Worth doing a day there then buy the Moonlight 2 day deal on Liftopia and get basically the same slopes for 1/2 the price.

This hill was alot of fun. Great for the whole family. The first day it was blue bird with fresh. My only complaint is there were a bunch of rocks covered with some new snow. Not riding here before was unaware of these hazords and got 4 core shots. Down by the gondola there were lots of good lines being put down and was fun to watch. There is a poker table in the bar so that was a good time as well. I will go back here again.

Yeti Dogs is great for midday lunch: dog, copper ale, and chips and eat outdoors. Now, need discounts on 6-day pass!!

Get some deals on here and I will give you all the tips you'd ever want to know about Big Sky. I've skied there a countless amount of days and know the place like the back of my hand, but after moving South a bit, I couldn't justify getting the season pass anymore while living out of state, so I need some deals on like a 4 day pass!! Come on LT!
