This mountain is truly one of Montana skier's best kept secret mountains, offering uncrowded runs, and a lot of snow. Located in Southwestern Montana, south of Butte near a small town called Polaris is Maverick Mountain. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area! A budget-friendly mountain, compared to large resorts such as Big Sky or Whitefish Mountain.
It is more of an advanced mountain, yet there are runs for every skill level. The mountain offers deep, powder-filled bowls and large amounts of vertical drop. Missoula's local gem of a mountain is Snowbowl! Just a short, 20 minute or so drive from downtown Missoula is an impressive and fun ski area located in the Lolo National Forest. It's a great mountain to learn on, it's where I learned to ski and snowboard in fact, yet offers fun for more advanced skiers as well! A budget-friendly mountain, compared to large resorts such as Big Sky or Whitefish Mountain. Some of their more advanced, fun runs are James Bond and Geronimo. The main run you see from the lodge is their iconic Big Seven (blue diamond). It is a fun mountain with a cozy, intimate lodge, three chair lifts, and 100% all-natural snow. It's the local mountain for those living around Great Falls and the surrounding areas. Showdown is nestled in the Little Belt Mountains of Montana near White Sulphur Springs.
