-------  

.. Over the weekend a large male grizzle bear attacked our neighbor Charles Mock near Baker's Hole. After several surgeries he died of a stroke in the hospital.

.. According to Gallatin County Sheriff's Department, (and other reports,) the bear was guarding a moose carcass.

.. During investigations at the scene the bear reappeared and charged the investigators: it was shot and killed. A forest closure has been issued outside of the park from the town boundary to the transfer station road

.. We mourn the passing of our neighbor and sympathize with his family. A go fund me page is available for the family (LINK.)

area closure still in effect

Perfect Timing

 WAITING FOR IT

A Sunny Afternoon

mother's day arrival ?

THEY WILL BE HERE SOON

-------  

.. Opening Day in Yellowstone National Park is about a month away. Masked fishers are lurking in dark corners of the recently opened pubs in our village. The talk, of course, is of lowland fishing and the beginning of caddis fly swarms.

THE GREEN WONDER

.. They are not here yet but some solitary individuals have been reported in the Gallatin Valley near Bozeman, Montana.The reports seem to be reliable.

.. Over on the Yellowstone River sparse occurrences of midges, BWO, or the occasional March Brown mayfly have been suggested by Parks' Fly Shop.

.. AND, Makflies has come forth with the perfect pattern for the moment. There is just enough time to tie up a gross for the next month or two. We include the video below.
