About the host
Hosted by Chris Heinle
We spent fifteen years in the heart of Bozeman, and just recently jumped at the chance to have a little more space, raise some animals, plant a garden, and enjoy life surrounded by mountains. We named it Hardscrabble after a nearby peak, but also because we haven’t figured everything out, we’re far from perfect, but we have a beautiful place to share. We love to cook, listen to live music, relax with friends and family, and enjoy what Montana has to offer. Sunsets over the Bridgers tend to lighten any load. We hope to see you and your group soon. We’ll treat you like family - you’ll be feeding scraps to our pigs before you leave. Promise.
