OUR STORY
About the YBRA
The Yellowstone Bighorn Research Association (YBRA) has a long history of facilitating geoscience education in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem.
Set on the slopes of Mount Maurice above Red Lodge, Montana at 6,800 ft, the YBRA camp is at the base of the Beartooth Mountains where a breathtaking 69 mile stretch of the Beartooth Highway (US Route 212) seasonally connects Red Lodge to Cooke City, Montana and the Lamar Valley of Yellowstone National Park.
The YBRA is a non-profit organization that serves as a base camp for field course operations for colleges, universities and institutes. The YBRA sponsors professional and community-centered field trips and workshops. Our annual YBRA Open House features leaders in their field who discuss current issues in earth sciences and advances in related industries.
