the foothills of the Anaconda-Pintler Wilderness, teaches attendees how to master
traditional outdoor cooking methods, sans electricity. It's one-part cooking, one-part
camping, with a dash of wilderness adventure.

TRAVEL BACK IN HISTORY
WITH THE US CAVALRY SCHOOL

River in southeast Montana 140 years ago. Here, travelers and history buffs alike can
experience military life on the Frontier during the U.S. Cavalry School's eight-day
intensive encampment course. Taught by the country's best experts, attendees hone
their skills and relive the historic event in front of thousands of spectators during
Real Bird's Little Bighorn Reenactment — an annual celebration commemorat-
ing the battle's brave participants. History lessons, frontier meals and training are
included. Bring your own period costume.
