Our last crossing into Montana for good was on the Beartooth Highway. The road crosses a pass over 11,000 feet and is only open three months out of the year. Sick backcountry skiing is done here, and Cooke City is featured in this year's Teton Gravity Research release, "Lost and Found." Thanks Maggie for that sweet Christmans present.

We decided to rent a cabin for the long weekend and enjoy the holiday with our friend from the Mitten, Mike Weirda. Since we couldn't be with family, we decided to kick it Montana style in the Bear Creek Canyon near Bozeman.
The problem was that Megan decided to cook a pork tenderloin and Goose wanted a traditional feast. She took matters into her own paws and jaw and got herself a wild turkey! We will never forget this Thanksgiving treat!! Goose was very proud. The ski resorts were not open until that Saturday, so we decided to make a
kicker in the Bridger National Forest backcountry. It was totally 
hick, but fun. Mike with a sweet grab. I'm pulling a 180. The rocks under the new snow tore up our skis. The next day we skied at Big Sky, and tore them up even more. A bad day here beats a good day in Midwest.
December 14, 2007We leave Billings with sadness, but excitement for what's down the road. Our last night out was 
memorable as we spend it with our new friends (from R to L) Sarah, Brady, Erica, Tessa, Malcolm (and Kris & Aaron not pictured) at our favorite brewery, Carter's, with Goose sucking up the spilled popcorn. After a late start packing (I wonder why) we spend the first night in Dillon, MT where we find a Patagonia outlet store with totally sick deals. One hour and ALL of our Christmas shopping is done! How is that for low maintenance! Boo-ya! The next day we continue on to Salt Lake City, UT to ski Snowbird.
