NIGHT SKIING-During winter’s peak, when the towering Northern Rockies loom snowcapped at the edge of Flathead Valley, Whitefish Mountain Resort opens select runs for night skiing.
Night skiing runs from from 4:30 to 8:30pm every Friday and Saturday from January 6th-March 4th. Disembark from Chair 2 and watch the sun set on the valley below and cruise the slopes set aglow. Over at Chair 3, illuminated rails and jumps will have terrain park lovers seeing winter through rose-colored goggles.
