SKIING AND SNOWBOARDING
Skiers and snowboarders have the run of three world-class destination resorts, all within an hour’s drive, including community-owned Bridger Bowl.
Located 16 miles north of Bozeman, Bridger is renowned for powder so dry and wispy, locals dub it “the cold smoke”. Big Sky Resort and Moonlight Basin, an hour south of Bozeman, are ideal for those seeking a road trip in their pursuit of powder.
