3) Whitefish, Montana

If you’re skiing in a group with different abilities or are taking the family on a special ski trip then Whitefish might just be the right ski destination for you. An old-fashioned former railroad town, Whitefish is located near Glacier National Park in the Flathead National Park, Flathead County. Opened in the 1940s as ā€˜Big Mountain’ the Whitefish Mountain and its accompanying resort offer a Western-style, laid-back, family-friendly atmosphere. With around 3,000 acres of skiable area, 93 runs and a longest run of 3.3miles, Whitefish is not the biggest-hitter when it comes to the stats and there is plenty of first-time friendly terrain but for the experts the summit is only ever a high-speed quad ride away with ample pockets of steep and deep terrain.
