Suggestions for a Winter Trip

I highly recommend The Rainbow Ranch.

At approximately $180/day? I don't think so. It is, however, a great
place for an elitist dilettante with more money than sense.

I suppose if you're saving up for a once-a-year week-long fishing
vacation, something like the Rainbow Ranch might make sense.

Look at it this way, two people can stay for a week in comfort for
the price of the round-trip airline tickets to New Zealand.

Since the number one item on Willi's criteria list was "warmth" and he mentions
"snorkeling", the price of Rainbow Ranch probably doesn't matter much to him.

So, you've been there, I take it.


Nope. I've been to places like it, though. It's not my cup of tea at all.

Coming from the midwest like I do, I gotta tell you, 20F on a bright
sunny day in the bone dry air at 5000 to 7000 ft IS warm. Practically
balmy. ;-)

Cold.

Look at it this way. You can go to Argentina in the winter (their
summer) and get about a 3:1 advantage on your dollar, and the fishing is
one HELL OF A LOT better than the Gallatin in the winter.

Willi,

Maybe give NZ another thought... If you time it right you get on the plane
in L.A. take a sleeping pil, wake up in Auckland good to go.

I gather from your thinking you probably wont go down that road, but if you
do let me know and I'll make sure I get a day set aside to show you some of
my favortie places.
