BOZEMAN- Although Southwest Montana has seen a lack of snowfall, Big Sky Resort and Bridger Bowl ski areas will both be open by the end of this week.
Big Sky Resort said they now have opened up more than 800 acres for skiing and riding since their opening on Nov. 26, 2020, with the extra few inches of snow they got over the weekend.
Bridger Bowl will open at a very limited capacity on Thursday Dec. 17 due to low snowpack.
Opening skiable acreage for Bridger Bowl will be limited to 5% or around 100 acres with all beginner area lifts running including Sunnyside, Virginia City and Bridger to Midway being open.
