Beartooth Basin Ski Area is a ski area located at Beartooth Pass in the Shoshone National Forest on the Montana-Wyoming border in the United States. It is the only ski area in North America that is only open in the summer, generally from late May through early July, since U.S. 212 is closed in winter. It opened in 1962 and totals 600 acres (240 ha) at an elevation of 10,900 feet (3,300 m).[1][2][3] The area is served by two platter lifts.
