No love for small ski areas?????

Recently I skied bottomless powder with zero lift lines at

Lost trail and mavrick ski areas in Montana and have

experienced the same at all ski areas listed below

Lost trail, maverick, bluewood, whitewater, revelstoke, Anthony lakes, grand targhee, powder mountain, lookout pass..... And more

You can add Ski Bowl to your list. I've rarely had to stand in a lift line and the terrain is as good as anywhere on MT Hood.

that's something, but you can also ski Aspen, Alta, Snowbird, Whistler, Telluride, Squaw, Crystal and any other big time resort with no crowds or lift lines if you go after dark and all that is left to show you were there is your tracks unless it snows and covers them up before sunrise. Sort of like Snow Leopards.

I was with Arcticat. The parking lot was overflowing with cars



See how at  2PM the trees were all tracked out


The powder coated groomers were mobbed


Don't go, its a waste of time and $13.50 for the lift ticket.

I <3 lost trail. Of the 20 or so lift served days I have skied, more than half have been at lost trail. I always felt the staff tried to make sure every customer (and even folks that bought nothing or little) had a great time.
