Beartooth Basin
U.S. - Wyoming
Operated by Independent.
Powdorf's take
Beartooth Basin presents itself as a distinctive, if petite, proposition. Its unique appeal lies in summer-only operations, catering to those who find the conventional season too brief. With a single double chair serving 90 acres and a respectable 1,001 feet of vertical, it offers a concentrated experience for the truly dedicated enthusiast or the novelty seeker.
For the intrepid wanderer, Beartooth Basin pairs well with a journey through Wyoming’s more expansive offerings. While Snowy Range is close enough to be a logical partner, the drive to Beartooth itself, along a scenic byway open only briefly each year, serves as part of the adventure.
As an independent operation, Beartooth Basin stands alone on the pass landscape. No grand passes will grant thee access here; payment is made directly to the mountain. Plan accordingly, and appreciate the singular nature of the visit.
