The Montana Haute Route
Be a part of something singularly spectacular: ski the only dedicated haute route (literally translated from French as "high route") in Montana. For a small group of select guests each season, this is an opportunity to ski the entire length of the rugged Tobacco Root Range, skiing big lines along the way and using Bell Lake Yurt in the style of full-service European mountains huts. This is truly a trip of a lifetime that can't be found anywhere else! Click HERE to learn more.
