The bar is sweet. The terrain is not bad. If it snows a lot you can ski 2000+ feet of powder and glades.
South facing aspect can make it weird in the spring. Up to 500 feet of icy moguls where all the runs come together after all that turning and burning thru the trees fucking hurts.
Soup is great tho

Definitely.
Which is why I'm glad it's foggy there 99.5% of the time. In my experience, Snowbowl gets a lot more sun. Although the snow staying better at Big Mtn. doesn't really make up for the generally meh-ish terrain.
Sure. I just get less excited about good terrain when the snow quality is frequently a crusty mess. But to be sure, on a storm day, Snowbowl has some of the best skiing in the state.

Big morning at Lost Trail. This is presumably with a ski cut (only other option is a natural). I bet someone had to change their pants.

Doood! You're interrupting the hate fest! Acceptable subjects are:
1. Old slow chairlifts, they stop when the power in Missoula goes out!
2. Penny pinching ownership lacking in warm fuzzies, strangely, they won't kiss ass when people complain.
3. Runs not mowed to the ground every year, they should be skiable once the first flake falls!
4. Mija made me put a leash on my snowboard
5. Stupidly premature claims that the new lift will be running (though a curmudgeonly ski instructor buddy thinks it might be this weekend).
6. The mountain isn't high enough elevation, or is facing the wrong direction.
7. They wouldn't let me on the lift after passing a school bus on the road!I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things. -אלוהים אדירים

They have two now so there is hot chocolate at least 50% of the time.

That's nice. I heard they were installing a 2nd hot chocolate machine, but last I heard it was taking an improbably long time to actually get it up and running.

It's a used one they got off craigslist from a Circle K in Billings.

Lapped all the runs today on the Snowpark chair today. It's nice to see some new terrain, and it's definitely going to spread folks out on the mountain (huge plus). It's low angle, glade skipping laced with lots of woody hazards.... Best be on your A-game when "maching" through said glades.
And yeah, what 406 said! I wacked my helmet off the halo on Tower 2. Someone is going to scalp themselves on the 2 big bolts. Otherwise it was fun.
