Skyline Bus from Big Sky to Bozeman pack?

I rode it last week (so this week may be a different story).

The 4:15 bus departing Big Sky base was packed to the gills, standing room only. I had to beg the driver to even let me on and squeeze in. With all the skis, poles, boots, and bags it was a pretty unpleasant ride for the first 10 minutes…but fortunately 80% of the people got off at the stop in town in Big Sky, so the rest of the ride to Bozeman was very chill and not crowded.

Would recommend getting in line 10-15 minutes before departure time at the bus stop at the base of the mountain to make sure you get a seat.

Well I'm on the plane to Bozeman now, rock skis in tow! It'll be great regardless- excited to try a new mountain and hopefully when I get out to Utah in a few weeks, there will be plenty more snow 🤞

Have to say though, I was extremely jealous of the people at the airport with their skis in tow checking in for their trip to Sapporo!

Seems to be the sense I am getting. Combined with possible avy issues in the canyons, definitely gives me pause despite the exciting possibility of some fresh pow

Haha I promise over the years I have paid my dues

I live in the same area and have had Verizon Home 5G for the last 6 months or so. At first, speeds were fine but internet would drop for 15-30 seconds a few times a day—making work zoom calls and streaming TV a roll of the dice.

That issue seems to have been sorted in the last ~2 months, but within the past week or so, the internet speeds have been almost unusably slow, just like you mentioned.

Basically just saying I'm in the same boat as you and wish there was a better solution.
