Well, we’re in a new abnormal. Climate change came to Montana just as fast and furious as the Gallatin River’s snow melt.

For the past few years, despite the severity of the winter season, southwest Montana has been fortunate to get an unusually sunny day or two somewhere in the month of February. This year, tomorrow is your day. Get out and enjoy some sun and fun on the Gallatin River. I know where I'll be on the river...Do you? :)

February's inevitable snow dump has come to Bozeman this past week. There is more snow falling as I write this. Take heart, though...The sun will shine again; and, you'll get to enjoy views of the Gallatin River while hiking or skiing along the Squaw Creek Road. You could even carefully hike down to the river and do some fly fishing. Wintertime views of the Gallatin River don't get much better than this. :)

Yesterday, the Gallatin Valley experienced 50+ degree Fahrenheit temperatures. Would you believe that it's snowing right now in Bozeman?...up to 4 inches so far.  Hopefully you got out yesterday and did some fishing. :)

If you're from the Bozeman area, then you may agree that we're having an unusually warm winter so far. This coming weekend will see temperatures close to 50 degrees Fahrenheit. Let's pray for some more snow pack. In the meantime, get out and enjoy some fly fishing on the Gallatin River. :)
