Open for business since 1961, the Brundage Mountain Resort in Idaho is a plush ski resort with around 300 inches of annual snowfall. The 1,800-foot vertical drop is enticing to most skiers and snowboarders, as are the 1,340 acres of ski-able areas. However, it is the atmosphere of the surrounding area that most visitors to this mountain remember.
