Area Information
Southwestern Montana, with its network of rivers and streams and its mountain lakes, is a paradise for people who enjoy outdoor recreation. Big Sky Resort is located midway between Bozeman and West Yellowstone, in southwestern Montana. Yellowstone National Park’s west entrance is just 50 miles / 80 kilometers from Big Sky Resort. In the warm months, Yellowstone Park comes alive with vegetation, wildlife and the same stunning panoramas that moved early explorers to declare Yellowstone "The greatest marvel we have yet met with." The world's greatest concentration of geysers bubble and spout amidst the glorious backdrop of the Gallatin Range. In addition to extensive recreation opportunities and fine resort amenities, Big Sky is known for its breathtaking scenery, abundant wildlife and gracious hospitality.
The weather in Big Sky in September can be variable – with hot, sunny temperatures or the occasional snowfall. Come prepared for mild days (60°-70°F) and cool (35°-50°F) nights.
