But the Ranch is at its most adventuresome in Montana's
harshest time of year, the winter, with its ten-degree
temperatures, and the sense of remoteness that such
clime imparts. At that time a discerning die-hard crowd
hastens to The Ranch to engage in a full complement
of rugged winter sports, including Percheron-led sleigh
rides, cross-country and downhill skiing, and ice-skating
and ice-fishing, to name a few. Apres-ski or whatnot, there
is the Missoula Art Museum, which recently exhibited a
private collection of over 130 Ansel Adams photographs,
including Yosemite landscapes and portraits of Georgia
O'Keeffe and Dorothea Lange.
