The ski resorts in northwest Montana and the Canadian Rockies offer some of the best skiing opportunities in North America. Montana is home to Whitefish Mountain Resort, the second largest resort in this vast state, and Blacktail Ski Area, the newest resort to open in the state. These are located in the northwest corner of Montana, nearly at the US/Canadian border as you follow the Rocky Mountains. The Canadian Rockies offer numerous resorts. Lake Louise and Sunshine are fairly close in distance to one another, whereas Fernie and Castle, along with Jasper ski resorts are a bit off the beaten path. more info

The northwest pocket of Montana and the Canadian Rockies are a unique area in that the neighboring resorts are no more than two or three hours from one another, making this a winter playground and a great skiing circuit to explore. The beautiful thing about the US/Canadian border ski resorts is that they are relatively quiet, lift lines are not even an issue. The terrain is vast and offers immense variety to please any level of skier or snowboarder, and the off the beaten path resorts are reseasonable priced compared to the big boy resorts.

If you are a skier searching for vast terrain to explore and a relaxed ski atmosphere, then head to the northwest region of Montana and continue into the Canadian Rockies for a real skiing adventure. Big Sky Country of Montana is wide open, the resorts offer excellent snow conditions with annual snowfalls around 350 inches, and the terrain is diverse with deep powder fields, open bowls and narrow chutes. Whitefish Mountain Resort neighbors the pristine Glacier National Park, one of the planet's natural gems.

The NW Montana mountains are dramatic with massive peaks that carry into the lands of Canada. This pocket in the Rocky Mountains is notably desirable for the winter enthusiast, as the weather patterns form among the mountain's peaks and create a system independent of the general weather trend. The peaks are gigantic, jagged and innumerable, and create quality snow conditions for all to enjoy, and the views aren't too bad either.
