The Livingston and Bozeman Area in Southwest Montana


The area surrounding PrintingForLess.com is a mecca for hunters, fishers, mountain climbers, kayakers, photographers and outdoor enthusiasts of all kinds. In every direction and in every season, you'll find fun things to do and ruggedly beautiful things to see. We're only 30 minutes from famous Chico Hot Springs and less than an hour from Yellowstone National Park or Bridger Ski Resort. It would take the best of poets to fully describe the immense beauty and deeply satisfying lifestyle available here. So instead, we'll just tell you how the area affects others who have been here:
  • Producers like Robert Redford, Ron Howard and Dennis Quaid chose this area for its unparalleled beauty and character to film such box office hits as A River Runs Through It, The Horse Whisperer, Far and Away and Everything that Rises.


  • National magazines regularly feature the area in top stories. For instance, Men's Journal recently ran a cover story called "50 Best Places to Live" with a photo of Dennis Quaid on his property here.


  • Many educated, talented people often take big pay cuts and work outside their profession (sacrifices not necessary at PFL), just to live in the area.


  • Millions of people from around the world come every year to recreate and recharge their routine lives with the world-class fishing, hunting, skiing, rodeo, rafting, kayaking, rock climbing, horseback riding, hiking, backpacking, snowmobiling, mountain biking, wildlife viewing, dog sledding, natural wonders of Yellowstone National Park, local hot springs and health spas and everything else here that makes our little corner of Big Sky country the last best place. See more details below.


  • More and more Montana alumni (those who grew up here and mistakenly moved away looking for greener grass) are returning with the understanding that it just doesn't get any better than this.


  • PrintingForLess.com employees regularly come to work with stories of their most recent "once in a lifetime experience."
