Last Run Inn @ Montana Snowbowl

Montana Snowbowl first opened in 1962, it was promoted as having the most vertical rise in the Pacific Northwest. Located in the Lolo National Forest, the snowbowl is known for long expert runs such as West Bowl. Its two lifts are old Riblet double chairs; the access road is significantly improved as of 2011 but still unpaved. Montana Snowbowl is also known for its steep runs and a 2,600-foot vertical rise. The Grizzly Chair ascends 2,000 feet from the base area and the midmountain LaVelle Creek Chair tops out at 7,600 feet below Point Six summit. Last Run Inn is an old timey restaurant/bar with great wood fired pizza.
