  FEBRUARY 20, 2006   The fantasy began when I pulled up to the base of the Yellowstone Club, an hour south of Bozeman, Mont. The concierge staff took my keys, my boot bag, and my skis. Then they parked the car, unzipped my ski bag, placed my skis on the snow near the lodge, and planted a pole on either side. All I needed to do once I was ready to hit the slopes was step into the bindings and go the short, flat distance to the nearly empty chairlift. As I watched the staffers lay out my gear, I thought to myself: "Those guys are crazy! Somebody's going to steal my skis." Unlike the ski areas I typically frequent, however, theft is not a worry at the Yellowstone Club. Nor are lift lines or lack of powder. Of course, you do need a minimum of $3.5 million in net worth and an invitation to join. The fees break down into a $250,000 initiation charge and $16,000 in annual dues. P ...

  By MATTHEW BROWN STORY TOOLS order a reprint digg this save to del.icio.us BILLINGS, MONT. Real estate mogul Tim Blixseth is acting as his own attorney as he seeks to disqualify a bankruptcy judge who slapped the former billionaire with a $40 million fraud judgment. Blixseth founded Montana's Yellowstone Club, a private ski resort that fell into bankruptcy after Blixseth pocketed hundreds of millions of dollars. His move to oust U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Ralph Kirscher comes after an appeal's court last month faulted the judge's approval of the club's 2009 sale. That $115 million deal passed control from Blixseth's ex-wife, Edra Blixseth, to Sam Byrne of Boston-based CrossHarbor Capital. On Monday, Tim Blixseth alleged he was cheated in the deal -- and that Kirscher allowed it to happen. Tim Blixseth said he filed the disqualification motion himself because his own attorneys and others he had contacted in Montana feared retaliation if they took the case. The ...
