<p class=MsoNormal><span style='layout-grid-mode:line'>The Gallatin Field
Airport near Bozeman, located approximately one hour north of Big Sky, is the
most convenient airport to the Resort. From Bozeman and the airport, Big Sky is
a 45-mile drive through the scenic Gallatin Canyon. Both</span> shuttles and<span

phone at 800-287-4759) at the airport is required. </span>Rental cars are
highly recommended so that you can make the most of your trip. Cars may be
rented at Bozeman airport or in Big Sky. The Resort encourages exploration of
the Meadow Village, Bozeman, West Yellowstone, Yellowstone National Park and
other outstanding sites.</p>
<p class=MsoNormal><![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>DIRECTIONS TO BIG SKY FROM THE GALLATIN FIELD AIRPORT:<span
style="mso-spacerun: yes">� </span>(See the maps)</p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Exit Gallatin Field by making a right hand turn onto Hwy. 10
(the frontage road).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes">� </span>Drive 1.4 miles
west through the small town of Belgrade.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes">�
</span>Turn left onto Hwy. 291.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes">� </span>This
road passes over Interstate 90 and becomes Hwy. 85 and then Hwy. 191.<span
style="mso-spacerun: yes">� </span>Proceed south 7 miles through the four-way
stop on Hwy. 191.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes">� </span>Continue south on
Hwy. 191 for 32 miles.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes">� </span>Turn right at
the Big Sky Resort sign (yellow blinking light) and proceed 9 miles to the
Mountain Village, passing through the Meadow Village.<span style="mso-spacerun:
yes">� </span>Turn left at the �Welcome to Big Sky Mountain Village� sign, then
right at the next small intersection.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes">�
</span>Follow the road up to the seven-story complex, which is the Huntley
Lodge/Shoshone Condominium Hotel and Yellowstone Conference Center.<span
style="mso-spacerun: yes">� </span>The complex is 0.5 miles from the welcome
sign.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes">� </span>Drive safely, and enjoy the trip
along the Gallatin River.</p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:TimesNewRomanPSMT;color:black;
layout-grid-mode:line'>Another excellent option is to arrive in Billings,
Montana. Located about 150 miles East of Bozeman, Billings presents itself as a
somewhat arid, Western-like area with buttes. As you begin your two (2) hour
drive towards Bozeman, you leave the Western countryside and enter rolling,
lush green hills reminiscent of Ireland. Continue a little farther and the
majestic Rocky Mountains suddenly appear towering above the foothills below.
Climb into the mountains and you�ll find yourself in Bozeman, a classic Western
town with a 1930s feel to it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes">� </span>You�ll
then turn south on Rte 191 and follow the directions above.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:TimesNewRomanPSMT;color:black;
layout-grid-mode:line'>Yet another option, is to fly into West Yellowstone
airport, a small airport located to the south of Big Sky. For those
adventuresome travelers, arriving at an airport in the Rockies (e.g., Salt Lake
City) and a long, yet breathtakingly scenic drive to Big Sky would be worth the
time.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>DIRECTIONS TO THE RAINBOW RANCH LODGE FOR THE MONDAY NIGHT
BARBEQUE:</p>
<p class=MsoNormal>From Big Sky Resort and the Mountain Village, proceed nine
(9) miles down the mountain road to HWY 191, passing through the Meadow
Village.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes">� </span>Turn right (at the yellow
blinking light) onto HWY 191, and continue five (5) miles south towards West
Yellowstone.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes">� </span>The Lodge is on the left
side of the road, and there is a sign up at the entrance. There are two (2)
parking lots for the guests, both of which are quite easy to find.<span
style="mso-spacerun: yes">� </span>Pull in either the dirt driveway right next
to the horse stables (where only a small number of cars can be parked) or in to
the main lot which should accommodate everyone. The horse stables are on the
northern edge of the property, and the paved lot is on the southern side of the
main lodge.</p>
