A painting that tells a story? A photograph evoking memories? A sculpture revealing personality and emotion? A poem that at first confounds then confirms? A craft that reflects a bygone era, modernized for today's palate? Here in BuckHaven, we are surrounded by talent, with access to galleries, markets and museums. And in this issue, we bring you stories of two institutions that can feed your hunger for beauty and color.

Have you ever tried skijoring? The Resort at Paws Up in Montana will have you loving everything about winter.

This level of energy and enthusiasm for Montana and all it offers runs deep at The Resort at Paws Up, across 37,000 acres of pristine wilderness, snowy this time of year. Once the snow melts (mid-March or so), the dude ranch, a working cattle ranch explodes with even more activity - trail rides, cattle drives, chuckwagon dinners, fly-fishing on the Blackfoot River (10 miles flow through the Ranch), rappelling down cliffs first charted by Lewis and Clark, 16 stations of sporting clays, white-water rafting, ATV tours and a host of kids activities to make Sonny Jin jealous. All this with the highest level of service (you dream it, they make it happen), luxurious accommodations and five-star amenities that draw Hollywood celebs as well as families returning annually. The beauty at Paws Up is more than skin deep, with THE FIREPLACES AT THE RESORT AT PAWS UP IN

Driving back to our guesthouse (where a wood fire lay at the ready and a path to the hot tub on the deck shoveled) our Kia Soul (each guest group gets one) we wondered what could possibly top that experience with Jackie. That night after another stunning dinner at Pomp, we retired to the cozy lodge bar, Tank, with yet another fireplace the size of a walk-in closet and were treated to an intimate show with three Nashville giants who were at Paws Up for a songwriter’s weekend. By the end of the evening, we were all trading phone numbers promising to keep in touch like kids leaving summer camp. Falling asleep after a day at Paws Up was easy, nestled among plump pillows and high thread count bedding, happily exhausted from basking in Montana’s fresh air, never-ending sky and the conviviality of the cowboys, cowgirls, and new friends.

02 The resort has a carefully curated calendar of events throughout the year. Winterfest - February 14 - 17. Culinary weekend featuring some of the country’s hottest independent winemakers plus hot Los Angeles chefs. Spring Break, Montana Style - March 12- 18 and April 6 19. Sporting clays, fly fishing, ATV trails, wilderness workshops. Plus the Spring Songwriter Weekend, trunk shows, a cowgirl spring roundup, Montana Master Grillers.

03 Glamping (a trend coined by Paws Up in 2004) From mid-May through mid-October, guests “camp” on the Blackfoot River under the stars in a luxe safari-style tent with a butler. Campfire Chefs and Campfire Stars are booked throughout the summer. Big-name talent comes to your campfire and a James Beard Award finalist or Top Chef competitor cook for you outdoors.

04 Pomp, the restaurant has a refined lodge vibe, with massive polished (but not shiny) wood slab tables with brass inlays, perfect succulent centerpieces, distressed copper chargers, white linen napkins and all the right knives and glassware. Executive Chef Sunny Jin has a vision for the food served at Paws Up that is foremost local and refined but not too fussy. Plating is divine, but the food is the star. Sunny took us foraging for juniper berries for that night’s dinner. February 2020 | BuckHaven Lifestyle
