During the winter, the area transforms into a winter wonderland, offering activities such as cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. Butte, Montana, is not just a city to visit; it is a city to experience, where the great outdoors is more than just a backdrop—it is a way of life. The region’s appeal is partly due to high-end resorts like The Yellowstone Club in Big Sky and The Ranch at Rock Creek, and the Rock Creek Cattle Co, which attract affluent visitors who often travel by private jet. These resorts contribute to the tourism-driven demand for airport services. Camping under Butte’s clear skies is a wonderment like no other. The sound of the wind rustling through the trees, the smell of the fresh crisp mountain air, and the sight of the stars twinkling in the wide- open night sky create a truly memorable camping experience. Bert Mooney Airport’s proximity to Yellowstone and Glacier National Parks makes it a successful landing point for exploring these iconic natural treasures. Horseback riding is popular in Butte, with outfitters like Iron Wheel Guest Ranch and Jake’s Horses Inc. offering guided trail rides that allow you to live the Western heritage and cowboy lifestyle. 162 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE VOLUME 11, ISSUE 04
