    Big Sky Gathering lodging questions

    The Gathering dates - 2/24/19 through 3/2/19 I've had a few people contact me to ask about lodging for the Big Sky Gathering. I'm not super savvy but thought it would be a good idea to get some ideas from people in the know. From another thread.

    Northern Rockies/Alberta Big Sky 2018-19

    At the suggestion of others . . . away we go! Keep tabs on the Ramcharger 8 lift build (and Ramcharger removal/relocation) here: Looks like the chairs have already been removed from the lift and are stashed near Swifty for the time being.

    Northern Rockies/Alberta Montana, I feel a road trip coming on.

    Looks like the snow is pretty good in Montana right now. Thinking about going out in a week or two to take advantage of it. Probably ski Big Sky and Bridger Bowl. Any suggestions on travel, lodging or other places to ski out there as we never been there. Thanks for any help.

    Northern Rockies/Alberta Big Sky sentiments. Input welcomed

    Hello. The short of it is, I need to land on a second location for this year, I am pretty well zeroed in on Grand Targhee for one. But in a debate over the second. I am strongly leaning toward Big Sky for a 3 day swing later this year but very tempted to revisit Whitefish b/c I had such a good...

    Big Sky has some interesting pass pricing for 2017-18 I haven't paid a lot of attention to the pass prices at Big Sky because its off my radar, but some of this pricing seemed creative and competitive. If I lived there, I'd probably consider the Bronze pass. From Dec 23-March 31, you're...

    need opinions - which one?

    Hi, I have the MAX Pass this year. I'm planning my next ski trip for the first week or two of Feb. before the crazy Prez holiday stuff. I'm guessing it will be for 7 or 8 days. I had my heart set on Big Sky as I skied it last season for the first time but for only three days. But now Mt...

    Ski vacation - Major resort or ski area?

    When you plan a ski vacation, are you most likely to go to a full resort with all the amenities or do you consider separate lodging and skiing at places that don't have all the extras? Thinking about someone who may rather .... Stay near Dillon and ski Loveland or Arapahoe Basin. Stay in...
