winter

Now that spring is officially less than a week away, the National Weather Service has revealed some interesting statistics about the winter of 2012.

I’m sorry to inform you that this list is going to be rather short, as the fish naturally have limited real flies to choose from this time of year. This means, we don’t have very many tied flies that will work in the winter. My husband is an avid fly fisherman, even in the winter months...

Now, that the holidays are over, the slopes are not NEAR as packed as they have been since opening for the season. If you are planning on hitting up the mountain in the next few days, you want to ensure you are making the trip worthwhile...

It seems that people either love the snow or hate the snow. I am a snow lover, which is kind of weird because I don’t do any outdoor sports at all that involve snow or even ice. So then why do I like snow so much? I’ll tell you why....

Am I the only one who wants to play hookie from work at least one day this week? This early snowfall is making me want to stay home and curl up with a cup of hot chocolate and a good book in front of a roaring fire.

What does it take to get back on the slopes after a 10-year hiatus? A positive attitude and a high pain tolerance.

Strong winds in Missoula this week made mild temperatures feel downright chilly, which got me to thinking, what's the deal with the wind chill factor?

Relaxing at home on a Sunday night, the perfect time to watch highlights of the Winter X Games. One of the coolest things in this year's games was the front flip on a snowmobile by superstar Heath Frisby. Heath is an Idaho guy, but he is always hanging out with freestyle motocross rider Keith Sayers, who is from Butte...

If you're still ignorant to the Frosting phenomenon, here's the short version.

First, the City of Missoula's street plowing priority plan... http://www.ci.missoula.mt.us/DocumentView.aspx?DID=625 Snowboarders, praying to the snow gods finally panned out. Winter finally hit Western Montana today. In celebration, we asked you to submit your best snow pics...

With the winter storm on the way, I thought I would treat you to a good winter driving song. A few years ago, I decided to drive a 92' Honda Civic to Las Vegas in a storm much like the one we have on the way. It was complete Hell. The one cd that I had along with me was Bloodhound Gangs "One Fierce Beer Coaster"...

The last couple of weeks have felt more like a spring thaw than the dead of winter, which has Montanans everywhere wondering what gives.
