Book excerpt: MONTANA: SKIING THE LAST BEST PLACEPhotographs by Craig W. HergertStories by Brian HurlbutForeword by Warren MillerFrom big-mountain resorts to small town ski hills only open a few days a week, Montana is the last frontier for skiing in the West. It's a place where farmers and ranchers share the slopes with snowboarders and twin-tip skiers, a place where snow lovers can still experience skiing at a mountain not yet contaminated by the sport's increasingly commercial atmosphere. Vintage chairlifts and A-frame lodges are as much a part of Montana's skiing landscape as high-speed quads and glitzy resorts, yet they seamlessly blend together and coexist to create a winter experience like no other: Wide-open spaces, expansive mountain vistas, dry, light powder, friendly locals and a laid-back feel.This is what skiing in Montana is like, as seen through the camera lens of award-winning photographer Craig W. Hergert in this breathtaking new volume. Compiled over many years and thousands of miles, "Montana: Skiing the Last Best Place" highlights all of the state's seventeen ski areas in stunning photographs that brilliantly depict the lifestyle, atmosphere and charm of winter in the Treasure State. Combined with stories about each mountain, these timeless photos capture the people and places that make Montana a special place to ski, creating a one-of-a-kind book that uniquely and beautifully chronicles Montana's skiing culture. For skiing, Montana truly is the Last Best Place, recorded here in photographs, no doubt to be treasured for years to come.

Naming Montana explores the origins of more than 1,000 Montana place names, drawing upon the knowledge of Montana Historical Society historians and the expertise of local historians from across the state. This new publication includes both geographic features, selected historic sites listed on the National Register of Historic Places, historic photographs, and maps. The authors’ extensive research illuminates the stories behind the names of places that we call home.
Download or read book Yonder written by John Hemingway and published by National Geographic Society. This book was released on 2001 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For nearly 70 years the 36-acre ranch on the West Boulder River Heminway bought in 1987 was known as the Bar 20. When he signed the deed, Heminway was handed the Bar 20's voluminous legal history and wondered if there was more to the place than just a name. Only a handful of acres, the ranch for generations has appeared on many topological maps as a formidable feature, Bar 20 Ranch. YONDER is the story of this improbably named ranch, and documents Heminway's search for the Bar 20's former owners, as critical to Heminway as his own ancestors. In the process he teases apart their reasons for coming, the transience of their dreams, the causes of their leaving, and in the process tells the history of Montana.
