POWDER PLAY DOWNHILL DISCOVERY Conquer the ascent and revel in the descent.

There are few places where winter is embraced the way it is in Western Montana’s Glacier Country, and with 300+ inches of snow, seven downhill ski areas, untouched backcountry terrain and miles of trails, it’s no wonder Montana is often described as a powder-lover’s playground. And when you combine our snow-covered paradise with blue skies, untracked lines, frozen waterfalls, cozy mountain towns and winter festivals, you have the perfect winter wonderland.

Glacier Country’s well-rounded, full-service downhill ski and snowboard areas range from popular resorts to undiscovered treasures. With a combined total of 11,000+ acres of skiable terrain, 370+ marked trails and affordable lift tickets, your options for hitting the slopes are endless.

World-class Whitefish Mountain Resort—ranked No. 3 in the top 20 of SKI magazine’s annual reader survey—features 3,000+ acres of terrain, 105 marked trails and incredible views of the Flathead Valley and Glacier National Park, as well as on-mountain amenities like shopping, lodging and GLACIERMT.COM STATS dining, and it’s only 15 minutes from charming Whitefish.

Lookout Pass straddles the Montana/Idaho border west of Missoula. The snow falls early and in full force here, dropping around 400 inches a year. A family-friendly resort, Lookout offers a fun mix of easy, intermediate and expert runs, as well as on-site dining and two terrain parks.

Montana Snowbowl pulls double duty as a local’s favorite and extremist’s dream. Boasting a 2,600-foot vertical drop, deep powder bowls and tree-lined runs, Snowbowl rounds out its offerings with a rustic, on-mountain lodge serving wood-fired pizza and famously good bloody marys. Plus, the new Snowpark chairlift is open, nearly doubling Snowbowl’s ski terrain. ›  Sitting at the very southern end of the Bitterroot Valley atop Over 1.6 million unique visitors each year the Continental Divide, Lost Trail Powder Mountain is perhaps one of the region’s best-kept secrets, boasting 350 inches of annual snowfall.

Discovery Ski Area, affectionally known as Disco, is a local’s hangout serving up expert thrills, beautiful views, steep terrain and uncrowded slopes with enough tree skiing, powder bowls, groomed trails and mogul runs for all skill levels.
