Three hundred and sixty degrees of skiing using high speed lifts makes Big Mountain one of the most accessible winter playgrounds in the nation, with snow that rivals the world s greatest resorts. The mountain s base facilities are located 1500 feet above the valley floor offering ubiquitous views to Whitefish Lake below and panoramic big sky horizons. This mid mountain terrace is being transformed into an exciting new destination resort - Glacier Village. Above all Glacier Village will preserve and perpetuate Big Mountain's culture and values. Every decision that defines Glacier Village s look, feel and function will honor its precious environment and special surroundings.
Buildings sit naturally in their mountain habitat.
Architecture is influenced by the great lodges of the National Parks, adapted to fit the village plan. Materials are natural and indigenous and are rustically crafted. Streetscapes are places of discovery, fostering the sense that they have evolved over time. They are pedestrian friendly, eminently walkable and visually engaging. Vehicles are only a polite intrusion as they travel to hidden spaces.
