When they call Big Sky the "biggest skiing in America", take that to heart. For the cost of the lift ticket, you get a LOT of skiing for your money. A wide variety of runs and terrain. And you will not feel crowded or wait in lines. We sent on several runs where there were no other skiers. It was... More

Best snowboarding was in the bowl at the top of the triple chair. Fabulous views! And catch the tram if it is open - they take you up to the top - 15 people at a time - and you can ski or board down (blacks only) or ride the tram back down for a hair raising ride to watch... More

It requires two chair lifts and a tram ride to get to the top of Lone Peak, but it is well worth the effort. There is nothing like looking out at the mountains and over the village and resort from 11,166 ft above sea level. It's a little scary skiing down the steep rocky runs at the peak, but it... More

Lone Peak is an amazing mountain but scary when looking up from the base. The tram looks slow but gets skiiers/snowboarders up pretty quickly. When atop, the Grand Tetons can be seen on a clear day and the runs down are not as bad as they seem. Take "Liberty Bowl" for all you intermediate skiiers/riders...it can be done! More

You can add the Moonlight Basin side to your ticket but you don't really need to. Lone Peak is large and lots of skiing. More

My family and I had the best time skiing Lone Peak. We had vacationed/skied previously in Colorado but that experience pales by comparison. More

My experience in hiking the peak has taught me a few things, always summit before 1 in the afternoon and be on your way back down before two. It gets really windy after this time on the peak in the summer and when walking a knife edge ridge wind can play a factor. for an easy hike take white wing... More
