Great Northern Powder Guides Cat Skiing Montana Great Northern Powder Guides provide epic cat skiing and snowboarding adventures. This Montana cat skiing outfit near Whitefish is pretty fun. It’s located in a beautiful wilderness area, and it’s a great complementary activity for those on a Whitefish ski vacation.

There are lots of terms and phrases that can get a powder hound drooling: freshies; face shots; visit the powder room; hang out in the white room; eat some pow. These conjure up delicious thoughts of skiing or snowboarding fresh powder. Unfortunately the fresh tracks that powder hounds crave can be hard to find at ski resorts, but get out cat skiing with Great Northern Powder Guides and you’ll probably experience freshies galore, which will undoubtedly satisfy any craving!


Where is Great Northern Powder Guides Located? Great Northern Powder Guides is situated in the northern region of the Stillwater State Forest in northwest Montana near Glacier National Park. The base lodge is located on Highway 93 about 20 miles (25 minutes) north of the town of Whitefish, which is near Whitefish Mountain Resort.
