A Look Inside The World's Most Elite Members-Only Clubs

Members of this elusive golf and ski club are rumored to include Bill Gates and Peter Chernin. Located just north of its namesake national park in Big Sky, Montana, the Yellowstone Club is paradise for any first-class outdoor enthusiast. A newly launched "World Membership" program partners with other exclusive international institutions, such as St. Andrew's golf course, and provides access to yachts and Gulfstream jets for its (even more elite) members. The Yellowstone Club may not take bloodlines into account as much as some of its European counterparts, but the same certainly cannot be said for financial clout: the initial membership deposit alone will cost you a cool $300,000.
