April is Big Sky's best kept secret. While other areas of the country are starting to enjoy the unfolding of Spring, here in Big Sky, we are still hitting the slopes. It's a local's favorite.  Secret powder stashes, warm, smooth turns, and sunny cocktail hours make April the best time to be in Big Sky. 

 

 Big Sky Resort remains open well into late April. Let's break down all the reasons why skiing in April should be on your bucket list.

 

 

Spring Apres Ski

​​Bluebird Days

Break out the sunscreen! April is famous for sunny, bluebird days. The perfect time to work on your goggle tan. Ride the tram on a bluebird day and take advantage of the 360-degree unobstructed views.  You can even spot the Tetons. 

 

Spring Corn

Cold nights with warm days are the perfect ingredients to produce soft and tasty Spring corn. The turns we all love. Seek out South-facing trails as they get earliest amount of sun. 

 

The Vibes

With the busy part of the ski season over, local residents love this quiet time of year. Fun and festive ski outfits and lighthearted energy are spotted throughout the resort. Big Sky Resort also begins its Spring Series Après, including live DJ's on the mountain and in the Mountain Village Plaza.

Spring Pow

What's better than spring corn? Fresh powder! And historically, April brings massive storms cycles to  Big Sky.  This helps North facing slopes to stay fresh through the month. 

 

Savings

April also means deals on lift tickets and lodging.  This year Big Sky Resort announced that lift tickets would be as low as $56.  But, plan in advance.  Purchasing your tickets online will give you the best possible deal.  Visit Big Sky Resort to secure the savings. 

 

 

In Big Sky we love April!  Instead of celebrating Spring blossoms, we celebrate more snowy days and laps on the mountain. If you're looking to extend your ski season and get more turns, book your tickets to Big Sky.  We'll get help you get started making your plans today!
