of the country is so much fun during the winter season. All the 20 runs here are wonderful. A 800 foot elevation difference is unsurprisingly not that much, but all the other delightful features of Big Horn make up for it. In wintertime the Bighorn Mountains is
| | a tremendously great spot if you get pleasure from skiing and snowboarding. The nearest ski resort with a more soaring elevation difference is 157 miles away. Great exercise and an opportunity to spend some time in nature outclasses anything. The impressive seasonal snowfall of 21 feet is plenty for exceptionally good coverage. There are 3 lifts here, and they are competently looked after and controlled by welcoming folks. You may have to settle for a hotel a bit far from the base zone if you want to stay for the night, but | |

do reserve a room before you go because it is a very popular destination. The Bighorn Mountains and its hills is a view worth seeing. Winter in the mountains of Wyoming and the fine feeling of gliding down the ski runs are cause enough to come here to ski. Whether
you're skiing or snowboarding, this is a region with not many other places for that. In wintertime the Wyoming hills are a great spot for skiing and snowboarding. This is a popular ski mountain for skiers from Sheridan.
