Who flies there besides Horizon and SkyWest? Anyone else?

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.

What about flying into Jackson? At one point I could get a frequent flyer
ticket into Jackson but not Bozeman. Haven't checked in a while though.

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!

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.
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?

You probably already have this, but here's a link that may help you pick
which airport to fly from:

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. ;-)

Jackson is 2 and a half hours from West Yellowstone. 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.

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.

*IF* there are two of you, I could be convinced to come down and pick
your asses up. ;-)

Now THERE'S a pick up line I haven't heard... :-)

Thanks for the offer Warren- and Mike. 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.

Sounds great. You could keep me from aimlessly wandering too much on
the way up to the Clave. Jeff was contimplating flying into Jackson
Hole too so there could be a few of us.

I'll drop you that e-mail soon,

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.

Camping at Hemlock this year?

Yep. Tent this year, most likely.

Can do, there's some close by Clave Central and pretty much anywhere
you travel, you just need to know which ones are better.

Yep. Tent this year, most likely.

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.
