While you're checking them twice, make sure you have the right airport.
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.

Don't fly into West Yellowstone. Fly into Bozeman! 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.

My wife will probably be flying out of either West Yellowstone or
Bozeman on the 10th, so I may be there too.

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.

Actually, I think Myron would rather fly into Billings - he has
America West miles to use. Billings was just a little farther than I
wanted to drive round trip from clave central. g

Billings is a bit far. 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.
