(EMAILWIRE.COM, August 15, 2009 ) Summer isnÂ’t over yet, and the Montana Big Sky wilderness proves to be an unforgettable place for festivals and fun, both for families and adults-only vacations. And during your Montana adventure the Lazy E-L Ranch offers the perfect place not just to rest your head, but also to experience the thrill and adventure of a real working cattle ranch. Founded at the turn of the twentieth century by David MacKay, the Lazy E-L Ranch continues to be operated by his grand daughter Jael Kampfe who carries on the family tradition of ranch life. Visitors stay in historic cabins built over the last century, and enjoy horseback riding, fly-fishing, cattle drives, campfires, and a host of other adrenaline-rushing activities.
The Blues Fest is happening August 28-30 in historic Virginia City, where you can enjoy live blues musicians while soaking up the Wild West atmosphere.
