In spite of low snowfall in Montana so far this winter, Big Sky Resort is off and running. On Wednesday, the Montana ski resort kicked off its 50th season on Wednesday with 172 acres of skiable terrain. Those who made it for the first chair were treated to complimentary breakfast, coffee, and hot chocolate. Later in the day, Big Sky had a live DJ, and MAP Brewing tastings.ย
Currently, Big Sky has seven trails open on 179 acres of skiable terrain, and six lifts operating. The lifts they currently have open are the Beehive Basin Carpet, Explorer 2 chairlift, Middle Basin Carpet, Ramcharger 8, Small Fry Carpet, and Swift Current 6. On Thursday, Big Sky got a small refresh, receiving 1″ of snow.
In terms of the new Lone Peak Tram, its projected opening day is December 19th.
