Amangani
Amangani (which means
“peaceful home” and opened in 1998) is Amanresorts'
first North American resort. Nearly 2,135 metres (7,000ft)above sea
level, the resort overlooks meadows and grazing land. Across the valley
is Teton Pass, which divides the Snake River Range from the snow-capped
Tetons. The Teton Range, dominated by the 4,200m summit of Grand Teton,
is the youngest of the Rocky Mountains. The snow-fed waters of the
Snake River gather in the Yellowstone Plateau and wind south through
Jackson Hole. The word “Hole” (as in Jackson Hole)
was once used to describe high mountain valleys.
The 40-suite, three-storey resort is
set on the cliff-edge of a butte. Its roof, crafted of cedar shakes,
flows like a natural outcropping. Amangani makes extensive use of
Oklahoma sandstone and Pacific redwood. Douglas fir and cedar also lend
shape and style to the resort. A soaring ceiling and a wide, two-storey
window with stunning mountain views opens up from the lobby.

Bridge Creek Backcountry Kitchen and Wine Bar
Imagine yourself growing tired and hungry from a day of skiing through
the mountains of southern Montana. As you glide through the freshly
falling snow, all you can think about is the warmth and hospitality
that awaits you at the backcountry lodge just ahead. You ski out of the
trees and spot a small log cabin at the edge of a clearing beside a
half frozen creek. Fragrant smoke billows from the chimney and a warm
glow radiates from the windows. You arrive at the front porch and just
as you're taking off your skis, the door opens and you're told you have
plenty of time for a glass of wine before dinner will be ready. Bridge
Creek Backcountry Kitchen & Wine Bar will welcome our guests
back from their day of enjoying the great Montana wilderness. Whether
they've been hiking, fishing, skiing, biking or just driving through
Yellowstone Park and over the Beartooth Highway, relaxing hospitality
awaits them. Offering familiar yet innovative cuisine combined with the
finest selection of beer, wine and cocktails will become the hallmark
of Bridge Creek.

The 7-year, $2.9 billion cleanup project, funded through the DOE's
Office of Environmental Management, focuses equally on reducing risks
to workers, the public, and the environment and on protecting the Snake

The Co-op has come a long way from its humble beginnings on South
Wallace Avenue in Bozeman. What was started by a few people on the
fringe looking for a way to buy cheap rice has grown to a $10 million
business employing over 100 workers with an annual growth rate of 20%.
In 1992, the Co-op bought a building in downtown Bozeman to better
serve the needs of our growing membership. A deli was added and a
departmental structure was created. In January of 2002, the Co-op
reorganized as a cooperative corporation. Later in 2002, a major
expansion project was completed, doubling the retail space and adding a
coffee, juice and dessert bar with an eating area upstairs.
The Co-op is now a huge success, nationally recognized and awarded,
with double the sales per population base than most other natural food
cooperatives in the country.

Moonlight Basin
In 1992, Moonlight Basin Ranch was formed by three partners after they
purchased 25,000 acres of land from Plum Creek Lumber. Tattered from
decades of commercial logging and ravaged by a pine beetle infestation,
the property was in rough shape. Nonetheless, the partners loved the
land and they immediately set about to resurrect it and its habitat.
To achieve this, a vigorous revitalization effort commenced. Access was
restricted to minimal traffic. Most hunting ceased. A wildlife
biologist was brought in, and together they unveiled a revolutionary
plan: develop a small percentage of the land and leave the rest
untouched.
Moonlight Basin is more than a world-class destination resort.
It’s a unique company involved with responsible stewardship.
And it’s a company in balance with its environment.

National Outdoor Leadership School
When NOLS students step into the world's wild places, they
bring not only their backpacks, but also more than 40 years of
experience in expeditioning and wilderness stewardship.
NOLS founder Paul Petzoldt's idea was simple: take people into the
wilderness for an extended period of time, teach them the right things,
feed them well and when they walk out of the mountains, they will be
skilled leaders with a strong environmental ethic. Students are
immersed in a core curriculum that includes technical wilderness
skills, leadership development and environmental studies. The core of
Petzoldt's idea was the extended expedition, one of sufficient length
that a person could learn and practice the skills over and over again.
That is the backbone of every NOLS course and today the school is
widely recognized as the world's leader in the extended expedition,
from two weeks to twelve.

The Pollard is a small hotel located in the former mining town
of Red Lodge, Montana, at the edge of the Rockies. Red Lodge offers you
year-round opportunities for outdoor activities, and The Pollard offers
you a base for these activities or simply a place for a short getaway.
The hotel that served Buffalo Bill Cody, Calamity Jane and other
western legends reopened in 1994 after a complete restoration. Since
then its old-fashioned comfort, modern conveniences, and attentive
staff have earned wide recognition. You may choose from guest rooms and
suites that have mountain views, oversized Jacuzzi tubs, steam baths,
or balconies overlooking the gallery and fireplace. You will enjoy
sitting in its oak-paneled public rooms savoring a relaxing drink or a
