Showdown Ski Area

Showdown Ski Area is in a great local area with an exceptional guest services department.

The prices for rental equipment and lift tickets are pretty darn good.

Great ski instructors who can literally teach anybody how to ski. Fun place to ski.

Best natural snow in the area. Showdown also has the nicest employees I've encountered at a mountain, they're great.

Great mountain, great trails, friendly staff. There are plenty of trail options for all skill levels. The easy trails are fantastic for beginners.

The best place for a family to ski. All kinds of levels of difficulty, NO waiting in line to get on the lifts. A good skier can get in 30 runs in a day. The lifts hardly ever stop because of riders, they have the best
lift operators.

Can't tell you how much I enjoy Showdown. They have the best powder in Montana!

I love how many trails there are. I wish I had started coming earlier last season (I came here for the first time mid-season) because it was that good!

If you want to try a smaller ski resort outside of the huge, jam-packed locations, check out Showdown. It's great for anyone, even kids.

This is a great ski hill. It's not super big like a resort but it's big enough to have a fantastic time. It is fun for the whole family. I used to go every weekend when I lived in Great Falls!
