There will not be a November election for three open seats on the Three Forks City Council. At a meeting last week, the Three Forks Council approved a resolution canceling the election for three full-term seats on the Council. The mail-only election had been scheduled for Tuesday, November 7, for the three four-year Council terms. With the passing of the resolution, current Council member Ed Tharp will be elected by acclimation. Tharp was appointed to the Council in February after the resignation of Steve Dahl. While it was stated at the... Full story

The Three Forks High School Volleyball split a pair of matches last week, including a four-set win on September 5 at Lone Peak. The Wolves were strong out of the gates in the victory, winning the first two sets, 25-15, 25-15. After dropping the third set 25-21, Three Forks returned strong in the fourth, securing the victory and winning the set 25-13. Head Coach Tiffany Lynch thought the match went well for the squad. "The girls played great in sets 1, 2, and 4. I was proud of them for coming back and finishing well in that fourth set," Lynch... Full story
For the second straight week against some of the top competition in the state, the Three Forks High School Cross Country team once again shined at last Saturday's Bozeman Invite. "We had a great meet. Our girls did very well. Bella Jones and Teegan Gifford ran in the mid 21's. We just need to work on tightening up as a whole, but I'm very pleased with all of their efforts," Head Coach Tara Forsberg said. Jones led the Lady Wolves with a time of 21:24.88, and Gifford finished with a time of... Full story
BOZEMAN — A program based at Montana State University is providing resources for relatives raising children across the state of Montana. The Montana Kinship Navigator Program at MSU offers kinship caregivers support, education and access to resources to assist them in raising the child or children in their care. The goal is to help caregivers live happier, healthier lives so that they can, in turn, raise children who know emotional and physical safety, excel in school and social situations and are prepared to take on life challenges s...

Hoot owl restrictions were lifted last week on all sections of the Madison River and Sun River. These were the last fishing restrictions that were still in effect in Montana. Hoot owl fishing restrictions prohibit fishing each day between 2 p.m. and midnight. Angling restrictions are implemented based on several considerations: stream flow, water temperatures, angling pressure and other angling restrictions in the area that may divert use to waterways where circumstances are increasing stress on the fishery. For current information on... Full story
The uppermost switchback on the Bright Angel Trail in Grand Canyon National Park is eight feet wide. Yet the last time I hiked out, I was stymied by a group of young hikers walking down shoulder to shoulder, tapping on their phones. Even when I said, "Ahem, excuse me," I was unceremoniously nudged out of the way - not on the cliff side, but still. It shouldn't need mentioning, but while walking on a rocky trail where one may fall to one's death, it is best not to be watching one's phone. And in case you were wondering, uphill has the right of... Full story
My mom was recently able to make a trip from Wyoming to visit us over Labor Day weekend. During her near-week stay, we watched the University of Wyoming football team play a ranked Texas Tech team in a game nationally televised on CBS. I have watched hundreds of Wyoming games on various networks, but it was a real treat to see them get the primetime slot on the second-most-watched network in the country. It brought back memories of the last time they had a primetime spot on a “big three” network and a bus trip that never seemed to end. A few... Full story
I have been inspired to write this week’s article on hope. I have a treasured friend who mentioned hope on one of his reels, and it got me thinking about hope. He was looking for a definition of hope and what it means. It is one word that I believe is difficult to narrow down. From his journal, he read, “Hope and hopelessness are part of my disease. Hope tells me there is a better way.” I couldn’t agree more. There is a better way. Hope is not merely a tiny word; it wears big shoes of unwavering determination. It is the tie that connect...

"This fall, I ask Montanans to help me identify outstanding Montana veterans who bravely served our country in uniform and are making Montana a better place through their life of service." The Montana Governor's Veteran Commendation recognizes outstanding... Full story
Three environmental groups signaled Wednesday their intention to stop a 16,000-acre logging and prescribed-fire project located in a national forest west of Yellowstone National Park. In their notice of intent to sue the Custer Gallatin National Forest, the Center for Biological Diversity, Alliance for the Wild Rockies and Council on Wildlife and Fish argued that the South Plateau Project’s clear-cutting, logging and road-building will threaten grizzly bears and lynx, both of which are federally protected under the Endangered Species Act.

After two road games to start the season, Three Forks High School Head Football Coach Connor Sullivan said his team was excited to get out and play their home opener on September 7 against visiting Whitehall. The Wolves put on quite a show for the fans at John Overstreet Field, scoring six first-half touchdowns on their way to a dominant 45-0 win over the visiting Trojans. Three Forks would get their first touchdown of the night with 4:29 left in the opening quarter when senior quarterback... Full story
For Bozeman police officer Scott Vongehr, a trip to the city's urban encampments is like a scavenger hunt for items you'd normally see at a garage sale or in your neighbor's messy backyard. Whether it's a stack of snow tires waiting for winter, a broken-down riding lawn mower that somebody promises to fix or a vehicle transmission that needs wrenching, Vongehr said these items show that Bozeman's urban campers are here to stay, even as the city struggles to put limits on them. Vongehr is the... Full story
