We publish a trail map only once we have checked it against the resort's own file, and we do not yet have a verified map for Big Sky. Most resorts release the new season's map between October and December, so this page will fill in as winter approaches. In the meantime, Big Sky has 300 trails and 36 lifts, running from 7,500ft to 11,214ft.
Distances are straight-line, not by road.
