Choosing between a Montana mish mosh (big sky, Indy places, whitefish, with a lot of driving) vs a repeat of last years banff revelstoke combo. Leaning toward Canada it’s just so cheap and I like Canada a lot
I drove by Lost Trail Powder Mountain a couple years ago and I’d definitely ski there if I were bouncing around Montana. It’s got some really fun looking terrain.

Did those 3 last year. Fresh powder all day at Blacktail. Snowbowl is great these days with the 2 new lifts. Whitefish was a bust, too cold to open anything above the lower HSQ.

With that said, I just booked a flight and finalized the Canada trip. It’s just so much less expensive and less driving. The Bozeman to big sky daily schlep is a lot, and covering whitefish to big sky in one trip (with flights at Missoula) also was a lot. Staying in big sky is too expensive and also kinda boring. Banff and revelstoke and maybe an audible to red, sun peaks, kicking horse. Lots of options. Very very affordable to be there for 2 weeks.

How much is a flight to Calgary? I feel like that would add a few hundred compared to a domestic flight.
