"The last weekend in March delivered classic spring conditions in Big Sky Country. If you're willing to look past the dirt creeping in on the sides of the runs, the snow that's holding is fantastic."
"By 10 a.m., whatever froze overnight had softened into perfect, spreadable corn. Opposite of the firm, icy mid-winter groomers, these conditions let you trust your turns and ski a bit better than you remembered you could."
"Taking a spill, a ski patroller hollered from the chair above, 'Wait until at least 1 p.m.' Taking the advice, we indulged in a long spring lunch on the base patio that included giant chicken sandwiches and a few cold beverages."
"When we circled back around at 2 p.m., we found what we were looking for: steep, soft snow that spread like butter."
Big Sky has experienced a warm cycle, leading to a decrease in snowpack for the 2025-26 season. Despite this, spring conditions have provided enjoyable skiing experiences. The last weekend in March showcased classic spring skiing with soft, spreadable corn snow. Skiers have adapted to the conditions, enjoying high-speed groomer laps in the morning and waiting for the upper mountain to soften. A long lunch break is part of the routine, enhancing the overall experience of spring skiing.
