Very fun mountain with great terrain and snow!!!! We visited this pnw resort in Idaho during February and were blown away!! We were lucky to be there during a storm cycle that brought almost a foot of snow!!! With what seemed to be an almost empty mountain we were lapping untracked fresh pow for hours!!!(off great escape quad , white lightning run) the chairs all access the ridge line of the mountain that brings stunning views of Lake Pend orielle, the surrounding mountains and cloud inversions!!The front side of the resort(south bowl) offers wide open bowls off the ridge for intermediate to advanced riders that lead into great tree skiing . Head to the back side(outback bowl) for some expert terrain in tight steep trees or take on the lakeside chutes if youre feeling sendy and want some air!!! We had one of the best days of our season here with great snow and awesome terrain. Overall this is a good mountain for intermediate to expert riders, lacking a bit in the green beginner runs only off the creek side express chair.on site lodging is available but also limited as well as apres and food accommodations, but this all helps with keeping Schweitzer quite empty and lacking of giant crowds. If you want uncrowded quiet resort with no lines so you can lap untracked powder I would really consider this pnw gem!!! Thanks Schweitzer!!!!!!
