BACKCOUNTRY SKIING AND SNOWBOARDING IN THE BITTERROOT MOUNTAINS
“The great thing about winter recreation in the Bitterroots is the access. To a degree, if you can see it, you can ski it. The long and mostly gentle western rise of the range’s 30 or so prominent ridges lines from the valley floor provides for fast and easy approaches to an almost unquantifiable selection of bowls, couloirs, broad faces and rolling aprons. Given the right equipment, knowledge and conditions, the possibilities for skiing the Bitterroot Mountains backcountry are basically endless.”
While enjoying what the Bitterroots have to offer we invite you to stay at Big Sky Bed and Breakfast in Hamilton Montana – we enjoy a panoramic view of both the Bitterroot and Sapphire Mountains.
