Legacy. Heritage. Tradition.
Outfitting has contributed immensely to the land and wildlife of the American West. Pioneers in this industry were some of the original leaders in wilderness and conservation movements.

Your soul is in Montana, and we hold you in our heart.-Sandy Seaton Sallee
How to Submit a Nomination
