This is a great resort, off the beaten path. There is a variety of terrain for first time beginners, to hair raising double blacks. It is uncrowded except for weekends. The price is very affordable!

Red Lodge Mountain is a good beginner mountain if nothing else. Most days you can hit every lift and run before 2. They have a few faster lifts but other than that theyre old school.

When the weather cooperates and provides some snowfall, the skiing can be pretty darn good. The natural-snow expert terrainwhen it has snowprovides plenty of challenge for most skiers and riders. The lift system is relatively well thought-out, but some of the older lifts may give your legs more of a chance to recover than you wanted.

The on-mountain F&B is limited but pretty decent, and the lodging, dining, and après opportunities in downtown Red Lodge are excellent.
