The premiere issue of The New West magazine, a new regional publication focused on covering design, development and community in the Rocky Mountain West is hitting newsstands and mailboxes this week. Click here to complete a survey to get the magazine free or sign up for a paid subscription here.
The magazine is available on these newsstands in Missoula: Shakespeare & Co., Fact & Fiction, the Good Food Store and the University of Montana Bookstore. Other bookstores and newsstands will soon carry the magazine across Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado and eastern Washington.
At 68 pages, this is our first full issue and we think you'll find it even broader and deeper than our preview edition released earlier this year.
The cover photo at right depicts Mike Horst, a ranch hand who lives and works south of the Bears Paw Mountains in Montana. The story, written and photographed by Anne Medley, tells of calving season on a family ranch and in the backdrop is the story of how even in the face of corporate agriculture, trophy ranches and soaring land prices, two families are holding onto something much bigger than just a family business.
This issue's "Project Watch" section details the bankruptcies of five posh resorts in the region and the issue is anchored by a profile Bill Foley, the billionaire founder of Fidelity National Financial and new owner of Whitefish Mountain Resort and Mackenzie River Pizza Co. and, well, lots of other stuff. And, he may just be getting started.
