Steps to the Gondola | Ski-In/Ski-Out Luxury Penthouse
Welcome to 31 Slalom #401! Completed in April 2022, this luxury penthouse features a bright, open floor plan with mountain modern décor, five bedrooms, four bathrooms, and two decks - one with outdoor seating and another with a private hot tub. Stunning views of the Spanish Peaks and Madison Range provide a spectacular backdrop for the great room, kitchen and dining area. A passenger elevator provides easy access to the ground level heated garage with ski storage, wall-mounted boot dryers, and changing area. Sound abatement along with blackout blinds in the bedrooms ensure a quiet and restful experience.
Directly on the mountain, you are footsteps from your door to slopes! Skiers of all abilities can ski-in/out of this condo. Ski straight to the Explorer double chair or head to the base area. At the end of the day or when you are ready for a hot cocoa break, take the "White Wing" ski run on Big Sky Resort's trail map to return to the condo (literally ski straight to the garage!).
Explore all that Big Sky Resort has to offer! This slopeside mountain location offers easy access to the ski school, dining, shops, and aprés ski! It's all only a five-minute walk away. Big Sky Resort's "Basecamp to Yellowstone" provides year-round fun with a wide range of activities from scenic lift rides and world-class mountain biking in the summer to guided snowshoe tours in the winter. Kids will love the mini-golf, climbing wall and bungee bouncing tower. If you are looking to get your adrenaline pumping, fly through the trees on zipline tours. Or for a true alpine wilderness adventure, explore the Beehive Basin trail which is just a short ten-minute drive up the road.
Beyond the resort, Gallatin Canyon offers whitewater rafting and kayaking in the summer and Yellowstone National Park (only an hour away) provides endless opportunities for year-round wildlife viewing along with guided snowmobile and snow coach tours in winter! Whether you’re in search of Big Sky’s infamous “cold smoke” powder skiing in winter, world class mountain biking and wilderness adventures in summer, or taking in the beautiful fall foliage, this condo provides the perfect home base for all your adventures.

Additional Notes: There is one Ring Camera located at the front door. We are a local property management company. So if there is anything you need before, during, or after your trip, please let us know.
This home does not have air conditioning.
Most homes in Big Sky don't, thanks to our typically mild summer temperatures. For a true Montana experience, we recommend our classic "Montana A/C": open the windows at night to let in the cool mountain air, then close them and draw the blinds first thing in the morning to keep the cool air inside throughout the remainder of the day.
TRANSPORTATION TO BIG SKY FROM BOZEMAN AIRPORT In order to experience all that Big Sky has to offer, it is helpful to have access to a vehicle during your stay. This allows you to travel seamlessly throughout the community from the Gallatin River to Lone Peak. While ride-sharing and taxi services are abundant in other communities, Big Sky remains a small town with limited options for transportation. We offer a 5% discount code to Explore Rentals for confirmed guests. They are located minutes away from the Bozeman Airport and provide 4 wheel drive vehicles with dedicated snow tires in the winter and all-season tires in the summer!

Top floor - Great place to stay for a larger group. The larger family room, kitchen and dining area was a great place to gather and socialize. The hot tub was new and very welcoming after a long day of skiing. The garage is awesome and can hold 2 large vehicles inside and an additional vehicle parked in front. Access to the elevator and stairs from the inside is so much nicer than the older Beaverhead condos. The condo says it is a ski in/ski out, but skiing out is not really possible. This isn’t a real problem - you just have to walk a couple minutes to the edge of White Wing ski run behind the condo to ski down to the fantastic new Explorer Gondola. You can ski back to the condo using the Blue run called “Oh Lordy”.We would stay here again!
The hillside location is perfect rather than having to fight traffic leaving the resort daily. The condo felt much bigger than the pictures portrayed and was extremely clean with top notch finishes. Would definitely stay here again!

Huge penthouse space with ample space for large multi-generational family get together. The private garage with boot dryers is awesome. It is about a 2 minute walk to the slope to ski down to the base. Highly recommend this place.

Definitely would stay here again. Space was incredible for a large group. Ski in was absolutely accurate. Ski out was a little more challenging lol.
Property management was outstanding in help with some issues. Two Pines definitely cared about our comfort and ability to have a great vacation.
