The resort has come a long way since it first opened to the public in December 1973. Conceived and built by the late NBC newscaster, Chet Huntley, Big Sky is a fast growing resort and community. Now under the leadership of Boyne USA, the resort continues to set standards for skiing in Montana and in the Rockies. Over the years projects have focused on lift expansion, accommodations and meeting facilities development, and the creation of Lone Peak Tram giving access to the mountain's Lone Peak of 11,150 feet. Its most current projects include a ten year plan with anticipated cost of $400 million for improvement to the village and ski terrain at Big Sky. The resort is dedicated to continual upgrades, expansion with thoughtful consideration to its impact on its surrounding environment, and in its dutiful service to skier and snowboarder patrons. Big Sky Resort continues to make its mark on the mountain vacation industry, along with creating a remarkable memorable experience for winter guests.
