The bears are out! One left his stamp on our trash can the other night, luckily he didn't get any goodies, but he and his friends are getting lots all around town. Please remember a fed bear is a dead bear, they will keep coming back... There have been lots of sightings all around town, and scat on a lot of our trails including the "M". Remember your bear spray everyone and keep an eye out, we love our Montana Parent families!
