"The Stardust Motel launched a shuttle program over the summer to various recreation spots in the area, including the Trail of the Hiawatha, and is continuing the service over the winter with regular trips up to Lookout Pass on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I hopped on at the Stardust after a fabulous breakfast at The Tin Snug with some freshly baked pastries to go. The ride was easy and skipping parking was an added advantage with an influx of people brought by the recent snowfall."
"Lookout Pass offers a little over a thousand acres serviced by five chairlifts and gets an average of 400 inches of snowfall every winter. After a few hard days of pow skiing on early season legs, I was looking forward to a relaxing day of skiing at Lookout Pass. With minimal lift lines, I lapped groomer after groomer on Peak 1 and on Eagle Peak, soaking in the laid-back vibes from the other skiers there."
"Lookout Pass would be an ideal place to learn how to ski or continue to progress towards intermediate and advanced terrain, and Lookout Pass has hosted the longest running free ski school in the country. Since 1942, Lookout Pass has offered a series of free one hour ski classes, with this year's offering running over seven weeks. The ski area website estimates that more than 38,000 people have learned how to ski through its free program."
Lookout Pass sits on the Idaho-Montana border and offers just over a thousand acres served by five chairlifts. The area averages about 400 inches of snowfall per winter and features groomed runs, tree skiing in Bigfoot and Paradise Glades, and minimal lift lines. A shuttle operated by the Stardust Motel provides weekend service from Wallace, avoiding parking congestion. The ski area hosts the country's longest-running free ski school, offering one-hour classes since 1942 and serving an estimated 38,000 learners. The terrain suits beginners through advancing intermediate and advanced skiers and preserves a laid-back, small-area atmosphere.
