This was the middle of nowhere. I\u2019d seen maybe one other car in the previous hour. Now I was at the place where they shot one of my favorite films, John Sayles\u2019 anti-Western <em>Lone Star<\/em>. It&#8217;s exactly the kind of thing you want to stumble upon out in the desert.<\/p>\n<p>The half-dozen or so buildings at Contrabando seemed tiny. I had to duck through the doorways \u2014 and I am not a tall man. It was as if the town had been built to 70% scale. Probably it was, though it certainly didn\u2019t appear that way on screen. A slight reduction in size is no obstacle for movie magic. <\/p>\n<p>These days, Contrabando isn\u2019t the same. All the buildings, weakened by flooding, had to be destroyed. All but one. The original adobe casita \u2014 the only structure at the site <em>not<\/em> made for make believe \u2014 is still standing. The Old West is the ultimate myth, filled with adventure and romanticized beyond reality. Contrabando is an apt metaphor: a thrilling journey, not quite what it seems, gone now anyway. <\/p>\n<p>For all the fabrications and folk tales, the Wild West is still worth revisiting without blinders on. <em>Lone Star<\/em> does it, subverting the myths and taking on the legacy of violence, racism, and exploitation. But there was also exploration, ambition, and independence. Celebrate those last three at the hotels below, while never forgetting how the west was really won.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div style=\"height:1px;border-top:3px double #ccc;margin-top:30px;margin-bottom:60px;display:block;clear:both\"><\/div>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tablethotels.com\/en\/greenough-hotels\/resort-at-paws-up?utm_source=agenda&amp;utm_medium=page&amp;utm_campaign=o_pioneers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Resort at Paws Up<\/a><\/h2>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">Greenough, Montana<\/h5>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tablethotels.com\/en\/greenough-hotels\/resort-at-paws-up?utm_source=agenda&amp;utm_medium=page&amp;utm_campaign=o_pioneers\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.prod.r53.tablethotels.com\/media\/ecs\/global\/magazine\/story-images\/20240629-Pioneers\/PawsUp.jpg\" alt=\"The Resort at Paws Up\" width=\"970\" height=\"auto\" border=\"0\" data-gae=\"Magazine, Clicked, Image\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Deep in the heart of the American West, the Resort at Paws Up is for the traveler who wants a wilderness escape to include all the comforts of civilization.
