I think I paid around 350-400 back in 2001, so 450 for the day in 2022 seems pretty good.

Checked out big snow yesterday, totally fun for an hour, loved that it was 27 degrees inside while having an insane thunderstorm outside. We skied but I would try a snow bike if I go back.
how cold is it in there? Do you need full snow suit? Thinking about taking my son so he doesn't lose the progress made in the backyard this winter.
they keep it at 27 so dress for that temp. clear goggles if you want to wear them, I had a yellow in and the light was very odd ended up not wearing any.
i Was wondering how the terrain stacks up against an Alta, deer valley. all the guys I go with are solid skiers. Some a little more than others. We always go mid week non holiday, so crowding shouldn’t be an issue.
where would you rather be on a powder day, aspen or deer valley?
love Jackson hole, but it’s a really hard mountain. At this point Targhee may be more my speed. I e been there a few times and have been really lucky, about 3-4 feet both times there. That was the some of the best cat skiing ever.

Have you looked at telluride or crested butte? Both really good skiing for all (and mtb) with access to cool towns. Not as easy to get to though.
Are you on any pass restrictions? Do you need a mountain village/town?

If you choose Big Sky, spend a day at Bridget Bowl. Really fun mountain.
The killer these days is that without an Epic Pass or an Ikon Pass a week at any of these places are a fortune now. And the only way to get one of those passes cheaply, was to buy it already. Day ticket prices at most of these places have passed $200/day.
Oh yeah! And it was awesome. Stayed in a 3 bedroom condo near the iron horse lift. Ski to, walk uphill 50 yards to get back. I think the condo was $2000.00 for the week, during presidents week In 2003. That same place is now $1,00.00/night. Crazy, how much prices have gone up.
my wife and I went a few days early, stayed in Bozeman and skied Bridger for 2 days until the other 2 couple got there. May be one of best best trips out west. snowmobiled thru yellowstone, I don’t think they allow that anymore.
bald eagles, Rams, ermine, elk and that was before we checked out Yellowstone. I saw a wolf at the park, really amazing. I was a little dejected by old faithful, I remeber being fascinated as a kid, but it just didn’t live up to the hype for me.
