Winter in Yellowstone is a great time to see a variety of wildlife and presents unique photographic opportunities with snowy backgrounds and frozen landscapes. The most commonly seen species are bison, elk, big horn sheep, pronghorn, moose, coyote, red fox, grey wolves, and bald eagles. While wildlife is unpredictable and we cannot promise any encounters, we will do everything we can to maximize our chances of success over the course of the workshop.

About Skyline

Nestled in the rugged Beartooth Mountains three miles outside Cooke City, Skyline Guest Ranch offers a secluded base for our winter workshop. Snow-locked in the winter by a section of unplowed road, getting to and from the lodge from Cooke City will serve as part of the adventures as we travel in a snowcat. Surrounded by snowcapped peaks and frosted evergreens, Skyline will set the scene for both creativity and exploration. After long days in the field, Skyline will be a warm and cozy place to unwind and enjoy the peaceful seclusion that comes with winter in the mountains.
