Zipline Adventures

Posted on: June 23rd, 2015 by thcAdmin No Comments

Zip Yellowstone operates out of two area. Gardner and Big Sky. Combination packages such as the Zip n’ Dip are quite popular.

The Gallatin River ZipLine is located between Bozeman and Big Sky, Montana, right off highway 191, just over an hour drive North from West Yellowstone. The dramatic scenery includes towering limestone cliffs, pine forest and a rushing river. This is the area where the movie A River Runs Through It was filmed. On these tours, you start by ascending sky bridges to a tree platform 55ft in the air! Both tours have two Zips across the Gallatin River! The Super Zip adds to the experience with more adventure elements. Test your balance on our swaying wooden swings or try our optional cargo net climb.

Yellowstone Ranch ZipLine is located on the historic Stermitz Ranch in the mountains bordering Yellowstone Park, just outside of Gardiner, MT. The tour will take you up a mountainside and then soaring back down. Gaze at the gorgeous pristine vistas, listen to the gurgling mountain stream and watch for wildlife on this remote and scenic property. To add to the thrills, go for the Grande Tour. Two of these zips are a breathtaking 1200+ft and take you flying ridge to ridge, 200ft above Cinnabar Creek! The trips meet in Gardiner and we shuttle you to and from the zip line course.

I have been receiving very positive reviews from guests touring the area. If you are in Gardiner or West Yellowstone take a sometime to include Zip Yellowstone into your vacation.

When in or around Rumney, NH, I strongly recommend the Common Cafe/Tavern for a bite. I first frequented the Common Cafe in August of 2013. Having spent time in Rumney as a child I was familiar with the space as an antique store in the barn attached to a house on the Town’s Common. The rebirth of this old inn is inspiring. The food in phenomenal, and the hospitality equally as good. The proprietor, Brian, is an entertaining individual with a knack for conversation, and creating great food.

Some of the produce comes from the garden just outside in the yard. Dine on the outdoor deck, which overlooks the garden. Some of the food you may be consuming comes from that garden. This past Summer while back in NH, my cousin Nate took me back, this time for an evening bite at the Common. After flying in from WY, I was pleased to learn that they had begun dinner service. Upstairs from the Cafe a small bar and a few tables had been installed to create an intimate dining experience in the loft space of the barn. Wonderfully renovated in classic New England style. The pizza was just what my belly yearned for after being away from sea level for a year. There is just something about the dough you never quite achieve at altitude. There was a small selection of local brews on tap complimented by a variety of wines and liquors.

Posted on: August 20th, 2014 by thcAdmin No Comments

Sunday, August 31………Town of Jackson Centennial Celebration featuring Lynyrd Skynyrd

The JacksonHoleLive! concert series is in its third season. Throughout the summer, free live music is available at the Snow King Ballpark. The ballpark is located at the base of Snow King mountain. This all-ages evening concert series is a welcome addition to the music scene in Jackson. Coming to fruition after years of anticipation, hope, and hard work this has finally happened. Shows generally wrap up around dusk, and provide a welcome social event for visitors and locals. Dogs are not allowed on the ball field. A five block walk from the town square and convenient to the S.T.A.R.T. bus, makes it easy to get back and forth from the show. This year’s new title sponsor is the Snake River Brewery.

By far one of the most entertaining and laid back events to hit the Hole. Locals thoroughly enjoy this day of all ages entertainment. I look forward to this day each year, the food is delicious and the music line-up tends to be quite good. The original version started out being hosted at Cutty’s Bar and Grill, located across from Alberstons. After a number of years the Boil outgrew its digs and had to relocate to the Snow King Ballpark.
