Montana’s Snowy Surprise for Ski Lovers

While Colorado’s ski resorts have faced a challenging season with limited snowfall, Montana is a different story — plenty of snow and fantastic skiing opportunities abound.

One hidden gem Lynn recommends is Lost Trail Ski Resort, sitting right on the Idaho-Montana border. Unlike pricier resorts charging over $200 a day for lift tickets, Lost Trail offers an incredible skiing experience at just $80 per ticket. Although it’s a bit of a drive (about an hour from the nearest towns), the reward is spectacular slopes and fewer crowds — a true winter playground for those willing to venture off the beaten path.
