It's been a long, hard winter in Montana, but with a little ingenuity we'll get through it. In my latest column for the Flathead Beacon, I share my hope that spring will slowly give way to summer, unlike in 2017 when it got so hot so early we had one of the worst fire seasons in Montana history.
Unless you're on the Blackfeet Nation, however, the snow and cold is probably just an inconvenience. Heart Butte and Browning have been hammered in recent weeks.
