Do · Montana Original
Bridger Bowl
A community nonprofit hill since 1955, with a community board. When the blue light on the Baxter comes on, plans change.

Towns
Still Old School in Gallatin County
Drink
Haufbrau House
The Montana State dive since 1961. Names carved in the tables, posters layered in the entry, and one of the last bars standing from the old Barmuda Triangle.
Stay
Sacajawea Hotel
White clapboard and a front porch at the Missouri headwaters since 1910. Built for the railroad. Still keeping the porch light on.
See
The Ellen Theatre
A 1919 playhouse named for Ellen Trent Story. By the 2000s it needed saving. It got saved, and reopened in 2008 with A Christmas Carol.
Eat
The Western Cafe
Counter breakfast on East Main since 1933, cooked from scratch. Bozeman changed fast around it. The chicken fried steak didn't.
Back Then in Gallatin County
Coming soon. Remember a place? Tell us about it.
Memories from Gallatin County
You're Old School Montana if... you picked up ranch pants and fence clips in the same aisle and called it running errands
You're Old School Montana if... you checked for the blue light on the Baxter before anybody started arguing about Bridger snow
