Best Ski Resort in Idaho/Montana: Lookout Pass Ski Area - Overall Rating
Lookout Pass is a proper powder magnet that punches well above its weight. Our users rave about the maritime snowfall – over 450 inches annually – that's surprisingly dry for the region. One Snomad community member who's an expert skier mentioned the "buttery groomers" and fantastic tree runs, whilst another advanced snowboarder highlighted how affordable it is, especially with college passes starting at just $149. The vibe is old-school and welcoming, with friendly staff making everyone feel at home. Sure, there's no slopeside accommodation, but nearby Wallace serves up character and decent pubs to finish your day properly.
