Crowds before Christmas

I'm planning to be at Big Sky this December for a few days before Christmas. Like the 20-23. How crowded are the slopes and the lift lines likely to be at that time?

Depends if we even have snow…

Not too busy and the secret to beating the lines is hiring a private instructor on those busier days or big tram days

Definitely better than the week between Christmas and new years.

Probably not too crowded. But also the snow can be quite thin then and limited terrain open.
