Montana. Ranch. Ski. Vacation.<br />
(Why Not Experience It All?)<br />
Glide out from your comfortable log cabin to access over 85<br />
kilometers of groomed cross-country ski trails. Ski with your<br />
guide among bison and steaming geysers in nearby Yellowstone<br />
Park, or carve the cold smoke powder at Big Sky Ski Resort<br />
and Moonlight Basin just down the road. Enjoy a twilight sleigh<br />
ride, or just kick back in front of the fireplace in a historic<br />
guest ranch setting, where friendly service and superb cuisine<br />
greets you at day’s end. It’s all right here for you—and you<br />
won’t find a ski vacation like this anywhere else. www.LoneMountainRanc<a title="December 2011 page 1" href="http://viewer.zmags.com/publication/1dba4862?page=1"> DEC 2011 VOL 31.2 THE FINE ART OF SKIING THE FI</a>
