We were watching it burn from the north end of Canyon Ferry lake the other day. Nasty fire, sucks.
Also saw the Dam Bar go up in flames that day.

A lot of good bars have burned up in the last five years or so. What's up with that?

The ones with kitchens are usually due to lazy/shitty cleaning of equipment(goods etc). Owners dont know, employees dont get paid enough to care. Just a few from ones that I know of.
I've spent a Turkey day at FS cabin in the belts but cant remember name or exactly where. I know you could connect over to the Smith though and had lots of hunter traffic.
On a side note for just getting back to MT this cool weather right now is great.

Four according to the website. I've camped at the Indian Flats cabin (didn't actually sleep inside) and it's pretty basic but in a good location. You can bike or hike a couple miles up to the Hogsback lookout, which is pretty cool. The drive to the cabin up Beaver Creek is cool too, tons of limestone cliffs, some of which have climbing routes.

Apparently it was the Miller Cabin but not showing up on Yeahman's link. Not sure what the deal is now.
Also saw that Altoona lodge is for sale but fingers crossed they survive the Goat fire.

An AP update to the attack at Baker's Hole in April:
Grizzly bear in fatal Montana attack was guarding food cache
HELENA, Mont. — A grizzly bear that fatally mauled a Montana man near Yellowstone National Park this spring was likely defending a moose carcass.
Investigators theorized the bear may have continued to aggressively guard the cache, including by charging at rescuers and investigators, because of a recent fight with another grizzly bear.
Carl Mock of West Yellowstone was attacked by the bear on April 15 and died two days later at an Idaho hospital.
The bear was shot and killed after it charged a team of wildlife investigators who returned to the scene the day after the mauling.

Whitefish
Anyone in Whitefish are have recommendations on a good boot fitter? I'm looking to get into a pair of Zipfit liners but the only dealer they show is in Missoula.

No first hand experience, but from what I heard there is a guy at Great Northern Cycle and Ski in Whitefish that does great work.

Put in a few turns to check the box for August. Skiing was meh, but the views are always fantastic.

^^^ Good work E2W. That's a soul patch if I've ever seen one.
Went for a spin linking mountain to meadows to buck ridge (mountain to mules?) this weekend. Good thing it's a wicked fast downhill because we were pushing it for light.

Great Northern used to carry ZipFits -
current website says ownership change in 2016 and shows Intuitions --
Missoula would be a reasonable daytrip for ZipFits -
toast may have more current and detailed Beta --
( Great Northern used to carry ZipFits )
Good luck !
( I read great things about ZipFits )

Helena got an inch at most on dusty dry trails, so I’m sure we’re good. It doesn’t take very long for our trails to dry.

The place in Missoula is Gull Ski. I have gotten boot work done there and was very satisfied. This was over 10 years ago, so obviously my Intel is dated.

Thanks for the great pics Gnarschralp, they are appreciated.
I'm having a hard time shaking the depression of backsliding into the pandemic. Skiing feels like my only lifeline but it's months away. Going to hike a peak in the Scapegoat this weekend, that should help. Grateful for the clear air.

2012 Montana Conditions, Stoke and Whatev Thread
I applied to the BS volunteer patrol this week.
Got a phone call and expressed my interest in snow science and medical response at the really Big.
Was told in no specific terms that I wouldn’t be allowed to do either, unless the pro patrol thinks I’m worthy and invites me to help out.
Hung up and bought a 3-day pass early/late season combo.
For those in the know, what’s a volunteer patroller do? Empty the garbage?

But it's high class garbage.
