n August 25, 1916, President Woodrow Wilson signed the Organic Act, creating
the National Park Service for the purpose of conserving the scenery, historic
objects and wildlife within our national parks. This year, Americas National Park
Service will celebrate its centennial birthday.
Montana is privileged to have two of the most spectacular national parks in the country.
Glacier National Park is located in the northwest corner of the state, where it hugs
the Canadian border and displays a spectacular jagged spine made up of the Rocky
Mountains. If you havent experienced this national treasure, we encourage you to
take one of our helicopter excursions to the park. The mammoth Yellowstone National
Park sprawls out over nearly 3,500 square miles in the southeast corner of Montana
and is highlighted by eye-popping peaks, mighty waterfalls and abundant fauna.
As we take this year to pay homage to these natural wonders, we cant help but t o
reflect upon our own property and all it has to offer. Little has changed since the
Blackfoot Indians roamed this territory centuries ago. As stewards of the land, we
have taken the responsibility of preservation and conservation very seriously. Instead
of building a looming lodge that would cast long shadows, we erected tents designed
to bring guests closer to nature. Instead of paving our roads, weve left them as dirt,
enabling visitors to brush off the same dust that Lewis & Clark discarded from
their trail-worn boots. And instead of building with abandon, we chose to limit our
development footprint to less than five percent of the ranch.
In a world stressed by an endless supply of complex problems and overtaxed by
technology, its comforting to know that theres still a place where you can experience
a pristine land that time forgot. As we venture into our eleventh year of sharing the
majesty and wonder of Paws Up, we cant help but to think that we are truly blessed to
be a part of what some have called Americas private national park.
Keep on exploring!

Surprising to no one, Montanas culinary resources are
as outsized as the landscape itself. That means when you

loving foodie kind of evening, starting with an authentic Montana farmers
market. And its not complete until you sit down t o dine with the ranchers,
farmers and food artisans that make the cuisine here so spectacular.
Along with some first-rate live music, this may turn out to be your favorite
Big Sky tradition.
We couldnt think of a better way to spend Fathers Day than at a Montana Long Table. That
is, until we decided to serve it up with BBQ-U. So, in June, join us for a special Montana Long
Table featuring Chef Danny Fischer and Chef Sam Huff, who, along with Chef Ben Jones, will
create a five-star, finger-lickin menu for you and Dad.
This summer, its time to earn your degree. Perhaps a 375 degree for
the perfect burger, or a 140 degree for a succulent medium steak.
Montana Master Grillers alums Sam Huff (Sams BBQ 1 in Georgia)
and Danny Fischer (Baby Blues BBQ in California) will conduct outdoor grilling
demonstrations that will transform you from backyard beginner to searing savant.
Learn the right techniques to expertly cook all sorts of high-quality-grade meats and

for a new traditiona spectacular feast on an actual cattle ranch with the remote chance to
see real mountain lions. Dine on sumptuous, exquisitely prepared seasonal cuisine. Try your
hand at archery. Wind through beautiful forests on horseback. Make friends with native

CHRISTMAS
December 25
Magicis in the detailsAt Paws Up, we do the holidays right. Christmas around here is a truly magical time where
doubters are transformed into believers and family bonds are fortifiedall against a backdrop
of pristine white. From Santas workshop (his Montana branch) and an old-fashioned tree-
trimming party to a gingerbread house making contest, horse-drawn sleigh rides and even
an in-home visit from Kris Kringle himself, youll be singing an epic yuletide carol. Feel like
doing something different to ring in the New Year? Hang out with us for an intimate concert, a
five-course dinner, fine champagne and an unforgettable fireworks show. Unless you prefer to
watch well-coiffed TV hosts try to fill three hours of tape-delayed airtime. Good luck with that.
Winter, a lingering season,
is a time to gather golden moments,
embark upon a sentimental journey,
and enjoy every idle hour.

The wildest nightof the year
What are you doing for New Years Eve? Maybe a nice dinner out? How bout a concert? Only
if youre willing to deal with massive crowds. You could just stay home, but fat chance staying
awake until the ball drops. Why not do something different this year? At Paws Up, you can
enjoy a gourmet dinner, attend an intimate concert, watch fireworks and make resolutions
in the comfort of a luxurious vacation home. You see, a holiday centered on reflection and
recommitment should be celebrated in a place that offers seclusion and comfort. With the
addition of an unforgettable party, you wont want 2016 (or your stay, for that matter) to end.
THE SETH GLIER TRIO
December 31
It wouldnt be New Years Eve
at Paws Up without an up-
close experience with a great
musical talent. This year,
were thrilled to feature the
Seth Glier Trio. A Grammy-nominated
singer-songwriter, Glier leads his
tight-knit band with a voice thats been
compared to a young Bruce Springsteen.
Early in his career, hes become knownfor his passionate live sets and a powerful
command of piano and guitar. His album,
Things I Should Let You Know, was called
a genuine revelation by Blurt magazine.
Hes shared the stage with Ryan Adams,
Ani DiFranco, Emmylou Harris, Martin
Sexton and James Taylor. Now, let his
soulful melodies ring in a year filled with
effortless harmony.
