While Martin City may not be a balmy Black Sea resort, it is famous for its own form of winter sports. Here we watch brave souls endure brutal wind chills to witness the annual Cabin Fever Days’ bar stool races.
Unlike Yellowstone, Glacier National Park allows no motorized travel during the winter. If you want to explore, you’ll have to bundle up and start walking or gliding. Fortunately last Saturday was a pleasant 15 degrees, a heat wave compared to this whole week. I am curious as to where the liquid water comes from to […]
It felt like winter and it looked like it too, but according to the calendar, winter was still a couple of weeks away. Early snows had melted, then frigid temperatures smacked the region. The combination of melting snow and freezing temperatures left Smith Lake with smooth clear ice – perfect for ice skating. We took […]
It’s a tough job drilling with a manual auger through 20 inches of ice. Twenty Inches of Ice! Drilling through 20 inches of ice (I am still amazed by this number) on a recent ice fishing outing was no easy task. After David drilled his hole and dropped his line, it was the girls turn to […]
Kalispell teen survives collision with out of control canoe, the driver, Bigfoot, may have been intoxicated. Isn’t that a great headline? And doesn’t it pique your interest? Don’t you feel compelled to watch the video below? Let’s face it. My husband David is witty. Always has been. He comes up with the most wonderful one […]
It’s another beautiful day in Old Kalispell. It’s gray and warm at about 37 degrees. The rain that fell early this morning has turned into a wintry mix reminding us that old man winter isn’t finished with us yet. Standing at the kitchen sink I called to the girls to look at the big flakes […]
I always check the Daybook column in the newspaper for things to do. Thursdays, I scan the Outdoor section for events and often find fun, affordable, and free activities the whole family can enjoy. This month I found that Glacier is offering “Winter Nights” cross-country skiing. They are ranger led treks under the […]
Outdoor recreation in Northwest Montana doesn’t stop because it’s winter. Saying that it’s too cold to go outside and play would mean we’d be stuck inside for months and be nothing but a bump on a log. Sure, there’s lots of hibernation and movie watching, of which Redbox has made quite convenient of late. Sometimes we’re sluggish when the weather outside […]
