Last summer my brother in law scheduled a flight out of Yellowstone airport. We arrived 2 hours early whicj was serious overkill for West Yellowstone, but dioscovered that Yellowstone Airport is now in Cody Wyoming about a 4 hour drive away. Cody is Yellowstone Regional airport now, a new enough name that it's not on the FAA chart on the wall in West Yellowstone. Check the airport codes and make sure you land in the right state.

It is cheaper and I will pick you up at the airport as well as provide room and board. I think you'll be at clave central when he comes in. I told him West Yellowstone was the closest to there, with Bozeman probably next closest and certainly more flight selection. -- Charlie... |

The drive from Clave Central to Bozeman is only like 90 miles, which by Montana standards is "just down the road," and takes you through some of the best scenery around. Using Bozeman's flight selection, a guy could plan on picking somebody up in Bozeman and still get a long day of fishing in on the Gallatin since it runs down 191 all the way to Belgrade where the airport is. The Gallatin is a very cool river to fish and I wouldn't mind making the trip to pick riverman up and spend some time fishing the Gallatin. The "effort" is worth it if it saves people a couple hundred dollars IMO. -- Warren (use troutbum_mt (at) yahoo to reply via email) For Conclave Info: http://www.geocities.com/troutbum_mt...nConclave.html |

Billings was just a little farther than I wanted to drive round trip from clave central. g -- Charlie... |

The trip would turn into a 200 mile trip each way and is one that I won't offer to make. g Bozeman is by far the best choice IMO and I wouldn't mind picking him up there. -- Warren (use troutbum_mt (at) yahoo to reply via email) For Conclave Info: http://www.geocities.com/troutbum_mt...nConclave.html |

Flying into Bozeman and fishing the Gallatin on the way down sounds like an excellent plan, Warren, and I appreciate the offer of a pickup! Between you and Charlie, I seem to have my bases covered: thanks! I have multiple permutations of my travel plans, but my hope is to use my AWest miles to fly somewhere close to Bozeman or WYS, and then buy a ticket to whichever airport has the most convenient connection. Either way, I'll be coming in from Boston that day so it might be an evening arrival. If so, which evening is best to arrive in Bozeman; the 7th or the 8th? --riverman |

Haven't checked in a while though. Bill |

Between you and Charlie, I seem to have my bases covered: thanks! Not a problem! I think that you will enjoy the change of scenery. I have multiple permutations of my travel plans, but my hope is to use my AWest miles to fly somewhere close to Bozeman or WYS, and then buy a ticket to whichever airport has the most convenient connection.

You probably already have this, but here's a link that may help you pick which airport to fly from: http://www.gallatinfield.com/flightschedules.asp Whatever dates works best for you, work for me. You don't have to limit yourself to evenings either. My schedule is pretty flexible so do what is easiest for you. Be prepared to fish though. ;-) -- Warren (use troutbum_mt (at) yahoo to reply via email) For Conclave Info: http://www.geocities.com/troutbum_mt...nConclave.html |

If you can get a frequent flyer ticket, it would probably be worth the effort. Depending on the route you take, you would get to drive through Yellowstone and Grand Teton NPs or by the Henry's Fork and see a lot of nice country either way. You may even be able to hitch a ride with somebody coming from that direction. -- Warren (use troutbum_mt (at) yahoo to reply via email) For Conclave Info: http://www.geocities.com/troutbum_mt...nConclave.html |

Bill Bill, Have the same issue as you, had a freebie on an airline that only came as close as Jackson Hole (American Airlines) Just booked a flight to fly in on Thursday the 8th. I'll poke around for a day or two before the official start date for the Clave. If you fly in and/or out on a similar schedule look me up, we could make the drive together. I'm leaving on the 17th.

I still haven't figured out summer travel plans, but the clave is definitely on the list. Hopefully I'll know by Penns and we can discuss then. Bill |

Jeff was contimplating flying into Jackson Hole too so there could be a few of us. I'll drop you that e-mail soon, Mike |

Bill Sounds great, good topics for the few moments between sleeping and fishing. Didn't get to tour with you on Penn's last year we'll have to change that this year. Camping at Hemlock this year?

Absolutely! And if someone wants to show me some of the smaller water in the neighborhood, I'd be up for that too. Can do, there's some close by Clave Central and pretty much anywhere you travel, you just need to know which ones are better. Camping at Hemlock this year? Yep. Tent this year, most likely. Bill Still trying to figure out the latter part of the week, may be camping myself. I think I'll be staying with the Southeners in Cherry Run the first few days. Make sure you drop me a line before the trip, it tends to be a bit crazy in late April and May, but that last week before the Penn's Clave, I'll be playing the Mr. Mom role while the wife is away in Florida, and will be surfing extensively that week.
