Disappointed Colorado powder hounds looking north where the snow's falling can use their EpicPass throughout January for free skiing at Big Sky Resort in Montana.
A roughly 13-hour drive or one of 35 direct flights to Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport from Denver can deliver the goods to those seeking snow. Big Sky Resort has had several large snowstorms and more than 3,000 acres open so far this season, claiming the most acreage and best ski conditions in the Rocky Mountains.
The deal gives free skiing for Vail Resorts EpicPass holders when they book lodging with Big Sky Central Reservations and ask for the Epic Package. Friends without passes, but who are booked with an EpicPass holder, can ski for $74 per day.
Summit County's Christy Martin is ready to head for the snow, though she's not going as far as Big Sky. She's stopping into Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, where friends report 30 inches of snow fell last week, making for some decent early January skiing.
