As a winter wind whipped outside, Marisa Roth and Mackenzie Heaton stood alone in the Northwest Ballet School dance studio in Kalispell. For the most part, other than when the Nutcracker soundtrack vibrated the room or Roth yelled encouragement over the music, things were calm.
Nothing compared to what the backstage of the Bigfork Center for the Performing Arts will look like this weekend when the Northwest Ballet Company presents its 18th annual showing of the Nutcracker.

A rash of grizzly bear incidents in Northwest Montana has led to one of the busiest years ever involving captures and relocations, according to Fish, Wildlife and Parks.
FWP has made 43 grizzly bear captures in Region 1 because of problem incidents this year, one of the highest numbers ever, according to FWP.
“This valley is a real grizzly hot spot,” FWP spokesperson John Fraley said.

A few times a week, Adam Gunderson walks into a room in Cobleigh Hall at Montana State University and waits. Sometimes he waits while other students rush to and from class. Other times he waits when most of them have already gone to bed. But he’s always waiting.
Waiting for a sound to come back, one that would remind most people of an old dial-up tone – static, two beeps, more static.

Almost 30 years ago a Canadian company wanted to build a coal mine six miles north of Glacier National Park, near the North Fork of the Flathead River. The result was a contentious battle spanning three decades and reaching the highest levels of government in both Canada and the United States.
Last week the issue came to a resolution in Canada as the British Columbia Parliament passed legislation prohibiting mining and energy extraction activities on almost 400,000 acres of land within the river basin.

It’s moving month for county employees whose offices are in the renovated historic courthouse, where boxes of files line bare walls and oversized, red, leather-bound books occupy the floor of the commissioners’ chamber.
The books, which contain minutes from past commissioners’ meetings, will fill in the base layer of shelves that make up the back of the chamber, atop of which museum pieces will be housed in glass cases.

The Flathead County Commission intends to pursue an interim zoning district for the so-called doughnut planning area outside Whitefish.
During a Nov. 21 hearing, the commissioners said the recent vote in Whitefish to repeal the 2010 interlocal planning agreement between the city and the county has caused a dilemma for the county.
