Up near the Montana Border the Basin usually opens earlier, but due to Covid restrictions this year, they made some changes and waited for June 1st. I’d wanted to ski here ever since I heard about it. I am drawn to places that are all about skiing, the simpler the better. This is pretty simple.

  • This place has free parking, a killer view, two platter lifts, a $45 day ticket, and not much else.
  • If you are uncomfortable skiing off a cornice, you are going to not have a good time. It’s an expert-only ski area.
  • Stay in Red Lodge MT for a 30 min drive up.
