Fire comes to Cove Canyon
After an abundant spring, a few weeks of hot weather, and a prairie lightning storm, a fire was ignited on the land on July 23rd. It burned 700 acres from the Eastern boundary to about 2 miles west, mostly in the main canyon area and nearby plateau. An article appeared in the Billings Gazette on July 24th. More Information...

Feast With Friends on the Prairie Benefit
As many of you know, our annual benefit event has been postponed to August 30, 2008.  Join us for this special celebration on and of the land.  Following the bison steak dinner will be a special program, 'Literature and the Night Sky' presented by Dr. Ron Stottlemyer. More Information...

Using the internet to connect people to place
The importance of place is central to Rim Country's vision, and we are happy to announce a new way to keep connected to our own place, Cove Canyon Grasslands, through the communication power of the internet. If you are unable to visit in person, look to our 'land-blog' to see and read about what's happening on the land. What flowers are blooming, what the fauna is up to, and what interesting ecological developments are taking place. Our staff will use the blog to keep you updated and informed about our 3,000 acres of home. If you have been out to the land yourself lately, you're welcome to contribute. Contact the office for more information.
