About Crazy Mountain Ranch
At Elevation
The ranch sits at approximately 5,000 feet above sea level, so if you're traveling from a lower elevation, you may notice the thinner mountain air.
To help you feel your best, we recommend:
Drink plenty of water before and throughout your stay.
Take it easy your first few hours after arrival.
Wear sunscreen—the Montana sun is stronger than you might expect.
Pace yourself with alcohol while acclimating to the elevation.
Cell Service & Wi-Fi
While WiFi and cell service are available in town, they are not available throughout most of the ranch.
What to Pack
Montana is known for its beautiful days and cool evenings, so we recommend bringing layers to stay comfortable throughout the weekend.
Dress for the entire weekend is western casual (i.e., jeans). A typical day in early June will have lows in the 40s and highs of about 70 degrees. But keep in mind that weather in Montana is highly variable and never typical. It’s said, “If you don’t like the weather in Montana, wait 5 minutes” because it can change from sunshine to snow that quickly. Because most of the weekend activities will take place outside, it is recommended that you bring layers of clothes so you can adapt quickly to weather changes. Make sure you have a warm coat or fleece for early mornings or evenings by the fire. Rain gear is a must.
And make sure you have proper clothes to support the activities you plan to participate in.
Make sure you have jeans to wear for horseback riding, golf clothes if you plan to play golf, tennis clothes for tennis, etc. Boots will be provided for those planning to ride horseback if you don’t have a pair of your own. For dinners, casual western wear is requested. If you have western wear, bring it. Cowboy hats will be provided for all. Friday is more casual (jeans/blouse or dress for women; jeans/button-up for men). Saturday is dressy but not formal (skirt and blouse, jeans, boots for women; similar for men). Sunday is very casual for dinner so tee shirts okay with jeans etc, western-style dress will work well. See the ‘What To Wear’ tab under the FAQ for more details.
Here's a suggested packing list:
Comfortable walking shoes or boots
A light jacket or sweater for the evenings
Sunglasses
Sunscreen
A hat for daytime activities
Casual attire for downtime around the ranch
Your weekend outfits (don't forget your dancing shoes!)
