Big Sky's Snow Season

Big Sky receives heavy snowfall in winter, especially on its high mountain slopes. At about 7,500 feet above sea level, the resort sits in Montana’s Rocky Mountains, where cold continental weather helps snow settle and build up. It usually remains on the ground for months, though sunny, mild spells can melt it in lower areas.

The likeliest months for flakes are November through April. Temperatures stay low, and gusts sweep across open ridges, especially during storms. Bright sunshine also appears between passing fronts, shifting conditions from blustery to clear within a few hours at altitude.
