Yellowstone Bighorn Research Association's mission is to provide education, research, lodging, and dining facilities for field courses in the natural sciences and for community and professional organizational workshops and conferences.
The Yellowstone-Bighorn Research Association (YBRA) is a unique organization dedicated to promoting and supporting geology and other field sciences in the northern Rocky Mountains of Montana and Wyoming.
The core feature of the YBRA is the Geology Field Station (Camp) located a few miles south of Red Lodge, Montana. The Camp features a full-service dining facility, library, two study halls, washhouses, improved faculty cabins, many student cabins, and other amenities to support field educational programs and research projects. Users include university undergraduate field geology courses, environmental and natural history education courses, paleontological research programs, and alumni reunion colleges.
