Northwest Montana's Big Mountain is a family-friendly resort famous for snow ghosts, unsurpassed views, and a laid-back environment. The resort caters to skiers and snowboarders of all ability levels-from impeccably groomed slopes with views of Glacier National Park, to the steeps, rocks and glades that will keep your head down. And it's all within 30 minutes of a completely renovated international airport (Glacier Park International Airpot, FCA on your ticket).
As if 78 runs, unlimited tree skiing and two sides of a mountain were not enough, The Big Mountain's next door neighbor is Glacier National Park with more than one million acres of winter scenery for cross-country skiers.
