Don't go!!!
By ,
The mountain is ALWAYS mired in fog. I hear the locals call it Big Fog, it's always bitterly cold, and we waited in lines that extended beyond ten minutes. The restaurants are overrated and if you like to eat fish, forget about it. Summer time the town is massively congested, winter time the roads are in a perma-frozen state. There were many accidents due to iced roads. I'm sticking to Colorado.

Great destination in the summer too
By ,
Whitefish is a lovely little town - friendly people, interesting shops ( including a lovely little bookstore - Bookworks on 3rd street ), accessible golf courses and some of the most lovely hiking territory in the country as well a very pleasant river walk around town. The restaurants were excellent (particularly recommend Loula's for breakfast ; Craggy Range for dinner ). The town itself is small enough to explore by foot. We attended a musical put together by the "Alpine Theatre Project" which was first class - sort of performance you expect in New York or London; but put on in the local high school. Was expecting a fun but amateur performance-- instead was seriously impressed by the talent involved. Icing on top is that Whitefish is 30 minutes drive away from Glacier National Park, as well as many other protected wilderness areas. All in all, the whole visit was more than worth the drive to get there. Will definitely go again ( but may take the train -- station is within walking distance of town center ) .

GrtTerrain n Snow no mat.Great lifts n North side!
By ,
I skied: Mammoth, CA,-Great-Best, Park City -bad lift location system, Deer Valley - huge, Big Sky, MT - needs snow making machines, But great upper area. Whitefish/Big mt. is up there with Mammoth. Above the snow line (latitude) it always has snow on the north side that is powdery. A must do!!

Big Mountain is the best!!
By ,
Big Mountain is the best resort, I was born and raised in Whitefish, have been to many resorts, and big Mountain ski resort is by far my favorite. My only complaint is how do you change the name of a resort with such a great history? It is still Big Mountain to me and all of the locals!!!
