West Yellowstone Excursions

For those of you that are coming up to West Yellowstone for a few days, here is a list (that the Bar N Ranch provided for us) of activities and their preferred companies. Eric and I will be sticking to the more touristy sightseeing, but there are so many awesome things to do off the beaten path!!!
 Tonya (at the ranch) said she would be happy to make any reservations for us (T: 406-646-0300 ).  If you want to make your own reservations, she said to mention that you will be a guest at the Bar N Ranch.

Thanks!

Extended Booking

The SCR has extended the booking till July 1st (our RSVP date). So if you are still interested in the ranch, go ahead and call. Tell them you are with the James/Toal wedding. They still have double queen rooms avail. and make sure you get the discounted rate. If there is any problem, get the name of the person helping you and call me! If you still want the list for other hotels, let me know!

Getting Closer!

Hi Everyone!
     If you haven't booked the Spring Creek Ranch  yet, I asked for an extension on the discounted rate. I will find out today and post it. I have a list of other hotels in the area (in town, less expensive and very close to the SCR). If you want them, leave your name and email address as a comment to this post!
                                             I can't believe it's June already!

RSVP card mystery

Hello  Everyone!
Eric and I are getting RSVP cards in the mail everyday! A few days ago we received a mystery card. There is absolutely nothing filled out on it! Ha! The person or persons took the time to tape it shut. If this sounds like your card, let us know!

Flight Info

Flights have unfortunately skyrocketed in price.

Check out kayak.com for best deals.  Airport code for Jackson, WY is JAC.  Unfortunately there are no direct flights (most go through Denver or Salt Lake City).  We've noticed lately a lot of flights with 2 stops (not fun) for much cheaper than 1 stop, so if you are willing to have 2 layovers go for it.

At least two people have booked a vacation package through Travelocity which included flight, Spring Creek Ranch accommodations, and a car for a few days so that may also be something to check into (Travelocity, Orbitz, Expedia, Priceline, cheapflights.com, etc)

We are planning on having a welcome dinner on Thursday evening that will be pretty casual.  If you can get an early flight for a good price then by all means go for it.  If not, then take your time getting in and we'll have some food waiting for you when you arrive.

Yellowstone Treasures:
This is a must read.  We used this book throughout our entire trip.  It has great info by mileage which is useful while driving around.
