Thread: Big Sky or Bridger - Right Now

In Bozeman for a couple of days... first time. Planned/wanted to ski BB, but with the warm weather and lack of snow - wondering if the better option would be Big Sky strictly based on snow conditions...

I have been checking the weather and other threads - but anyone with insight regarding the snow conditions from yesterday would be helpful.

Don't turn this into a battle of which resort is better - just what you have experienced over the last couple of days please...

Thanks for the help - appreciate it.

with a lack of fresh snow, it depends on if you like bumps. Bridger will be moguled up. Big Sky will have bumps but generally more grooming.

Without new snow Big Sky is always my choice. Super Bros and laps on the groomers.

bb slackcntry deliverin', gotta walk a bit tho...new stuff moved a lil bit ystrdy but not far/deep
inbounds Nfacing chalk, yes w/bumps -maybe they make u stronger?dunno my tolerance is whacked been there toolong...
hope you got summa that stormage somewhere anyway.......

Not to revive this thread from the dead - but I skied back at BS a day ago and it was definitely worth it. Compared to other things going on resort wise - BS grooms so hard on the lower mountain - plus a good layer of fresh is way worth it. Upper mountain has been reasonable without new snow - but 2 runs off of Lone Peak Triple Chair with new snow was almost the best of the year so far.... other than GT the past 2 days.

How is Big Sky looking/whats the forecast? I'm headed up at this weekend. First timer, so I'm excited. Also, all the CO people can thank me for the snow since I changed my plans... I was suppose to be in Vail this week!

This seems to be conservative in my opinion and is only for ~7500 ft but I would say gonna be deep by this weekend in to next week.

Perfect, this weekend into next week is my schedule. I'm dying for some snow.

Any must-sees or must-dos for my first time there? I keep going to the same familiar resorts, haven't had to explore in awhile.
