The Largest Terrain in the U.S.

The Biggest Skiing in America can be found just up the road from the 320 at Big Sky Ski Resort and Moonlight Basin. We can arrange ski and stay packages so you can experience the cold-smoke powder upon which Lone Mountain has staked its reputation.

Take the gondola up to the peak for some serious terrain, or ride the groomers that snake all across this scenic mountain. Ski rentals are widely available, and every skill level will enjoy their time on the slopes.

Ski or Snowboard America's biggest skiing: There is nothing like the morning after a fresh snowfall in Big Sky. The Lone Peak Pass interconnect lift ticket allows skiers and snowboarders access to 5,512 acres of skiable terrain, from the most relaxed, meandering slopes to the most challenging, vertical chutes. Between Big Sky Resort and Moonlight Basin, you have 23 lifts and 4,350 vertical feet at your fingertips- all yours for sheer skiing and snowboarding bliss.

Cross-country skiing can be done right at the ranch and has a collection of snowshoe trails for an easy going pace for newcomers. If you're looking for something more advanced, the ranch can direct you to Lone Mountain Ranch located in the Meadow Village in Big Sky. Lone Mountain Ranch, a working ranch turned paradise, is now named as North America's #1 Nordic Ski center, with over 80 kilometers of groomed trails to discover. If the downhill slopes are not your thing, then these trails will offer you the experience you're looking for.
