Im from Billings. I am generally cruisin around in Red Lodge because of how close it is to me but I also occasionally hit up Bridger Bowl, Big Sky, Moonlight and Showdown.

I grew up just down the road from you in the Bitteroot Valley. I went to high school in Stevensville. Infortunately this was a few years before snowboarding but I did try a little skiing at Lost Trail south of Darby and over at Lookout Pass on I-90. Missoula is a nice town!

Papawood- I've been to Moonlight and Bridger and I'm headed to Big Sky and Showdown to do Resort reviews for the site here soon. I'm super excited to go to Big Sky. I have never been to Red Lodge, how is it?

Snowolf- funny, I grew up in Missoula and didn't really learn until I moved away, but it's good to be back! I love lost trail and lookout. How is Mt. Hood? I would love to go snowboarding up there during the summer.

It is great! I teach at Mt. Hood Meadows and we have the best terrain on the mountain. Ski Bowl is sick too, but we have more of it and faster lifts. You definitely should come in June/July and ride at Timberline up on the Palmer Glacier. It is so fun to shred the summer corn under a clear blue sky in 70 degree weather! Taking last chair in the afternoon and hiking to just below the summit of Mt. Hood and riding all the way back down is incredible! If you go all the way to the top of the Hogsback where the big Bergshrund Crevasse is and ride to the parking lot it`s about 5 miles and just over 5,000 vertical feet!

So you can ride snow in the summer at MT. Hood? That might be a trip I need to take for sure...A bit more info would be great...sorry for the hi-jack...

It is a very fun mountain. Doesn't get the snow that Bridger or Moonlight do, but for the drive it well suits my needs. This last weekend, Red Lodge got absolutely crapped on with pow and was absolutely fantastic. It is also significantly less crowded than Big Sky, Bridger and even Moonlight. I would rate it a little better than Discovery if you have been there.

I'm glad there's a few of us out there!

BoardJunkie- I was up at Blacktail last weekend, had a blast. Where do you usually go?

Anyone headed to Moonlight/Big Sky this weekend? There is the dummy jump at Big Sky on the 9th, and Volcom's Peanut Butter and Rail Jam amateur snowboard contest. I'm super stoked for the PBRJ. It's not often we get things like this in Montana. Anyways, we'll be up there taking pictures for the site (snowboardmontana.org), not competing (i'm still at the beginner parks).
