This was a true mountain top experience. Back country skiing at its best and only a ski lift away. The guides were strong and fun. Can’t wait to go back.

Schweitzer Mountain Resort

Mountain and ski area located in northern Idaho.

Reviewed By AniT371

We did 9 days here of snowboarding for a family of 5, second year here after discovering it from our family who lives nearby. Great staff, very friendly and fun. Stayed at the White Pine Lodge. My kids did the runs by themselves all day. Excellent prices if you book online lift tickets. Good cafeteria on site with delicious burgers, fries, drinks. My 10 year old got stuck by herself in an area hard to get out of, and a staff member pulled her by his ski pole to the run area for safety. She also have no crowds except during weekend peak times. I just wish the Musical Chairs chair would go slower upon getting off, I kept falling! The other lifts are fast and almost stop to allow you to get off easily. The area is known for excellent snow, no crowds, and good variety of runs. This place is a hidden gem.

Reviewed By katiemr2010 - High River, Canada

We phoned for reservations a few days ahead and spoke with Matt. He checked the weather out for us and suggested we come a day earlier as it seemed like it may be a better day. Once there,we were told Suzanne would be our guide and that there were 3 other guests joining in the ride. Suzanne took the time to know each of our riding skills and experience and paired us up with the approipriate horse. She was very patience with the group and made sure we were all off to a great start. Throughout the ride, Suzanne gave us all kinds of information about the area, the horses and tips on riding. We had a great time and would definitely call on Mountain Horse Adventures again when we go riding in the Idaho area. Thank you Suzanne, for the great ride, sharing your knowledge with us and helping make it a very enjoyable day.
