Planning a Idaho, Montana, Utah, Wyoming trip - best time to go?

Hey guys me and a buddy are doing a mountain collective trip this year. Big sky - Jackson hole - Alta - Snowbird - Snowbasin - and Sun Valley. It looks like you guys get your most snowfall on average in Jan and Feb.

When would you suggest planning the trip? Would any time in Jan or Feb work? Or is it better to go around March when more of a base is settled?

Thanks!

I’d say end of February is prime time. Definitely not early January or anything before. Tons of rocks and big sky is full of shale

Hahaha yup, we get it every year for the Canadian resorts but never did the USA trip. This will be the year.

Thanks for all the responses sounds like we will be planning for right around late February

The help is super appreciated
