March 30, 2011 It has been a pretty good season all around, but this Spring has been epic. I have great news for you, as the ski season comes to a close but ski areas are extending their seasons. Here are the closing dates:
January 7, 2011 Avalanche danger in and around Gallatin County is no joke. Even dogs can trigger slides, as seen in this photo from The Gallatin National Forest Avalanche Center.
January 5, 2011 If you're a Montana resident or a current Montana college student with ID, get ready to hit the slopes this Friday January 7th at Moonlight Basin for just $20. That's right, it's one of the best deals in skiing all year long and The MOOSE will see you there.
December 18, 2010 Jerry Joseph will be appearing in Big Sky, MT on Friday March 25th and Saturday March 26th at Whiskey Jacks. That should make you feel better if you missed his Livingston shows with Wally Ingram. But don't miss him again. He's just sounding too good.
December 12, 2010 So I've already had breakfast this morning at the Huntley Dining Room. It's really quite pleasant when you're one of the first people awake in the building. Biscuits and gravy are always a good idea in my book. So Big Sky skiing is on the agenda today. "The Biggest Skiing In American", they say.
December 10, 2010 I guess it's not really hiding when you post it in your blog but Big Sky, Montana is one of my favorite places on the planet to hide. There or Manzanillo, Mexico. Either one is fine. However, this weekend it's Big Sky. This trip is half fun, half business. OK, way more fun than business but I DO have a meeting.
The fresh snow that has fallen on Southwest Montana over the past couple of weeks has put smiles on both skiers & boarders; and ski area operators alike. The early season openings have not just benefited Big Sky, Moonlight, and Bridger; but ski areas across the state.
With Bridger Bowl and Moonlight Basin moving up opening dates due to record snowfall, area skiers and boarders are poised to hit the mountains. Big Sky opens today and has picked up another foot of new snow in the last 24 hours, giving the resort a 40" base at the bottom of the hill, and 70" at the summit
November 16, 2010 I got the email from the horse's mouth this afternoon (Big Sky Marketing Department, that is) so you know it's true....Big Sky Resort is set to open their ski season on Thanksgiving Day. Here's EXACTLY what they said:
