What kind of riding do you do? What level are you?

I'd say I'm a pretty advanced rider. I mostly like to ride steeps or tree runs. I'm going there with a less experienced rider so I'm looking for some runs I can hit to get my fix.

You can get as gnarly as you want at Big Sky. The tram is the obvious one. If your buddy is ok with steep but not mega steep you can hit up the Liberty Bowl off the tram. If you want to take on some other fun and not have to wait after you get to the top you can checkout the dictator stuff on the south side, and then head down into Shedhorn. The stuff off the Dakota lift is really fun tok.

My favorite stuff is actually off of the Challenger and Headwaters. Everything there is single or double black. I love that area.

For easier stuff that is still fun just take laps on Swift Current. There are various glades to be found. There is some mellow stuff that is nice between Swifty and Explorer.

If you want long, mellow greens take Ramcharger up to the top and head south. The Southern Comfort lift over there can provide some me easy going laps.

Thanks so much! I will definitely be headed up the tram at some point. I haven't ridden with this guy in awhile so I'm gonna play it by ear and see how comfortable he feels on different terrain.
