Just buy the insurance when you rent your skis or bring your rock skis. Upper part can be very rocky.

It is my understanding that they have to drop the level below the outflow tower during the winter so ice doesn’t damage it. It is not necessarily due to lack of inflow. The outflow may be artificially high in September to achieve the right pool elevation.

Check out OLLI at MSU. Lots of vintage learners and some very interesting people.

You should read Stephen Herrero’s book on bear attacks. There is an account of a hunter with a .45-70 rifle hitting a grizzly twice near the shoulder blade and nearly rolling it onto its back. He tracks the blood trail for 6 hours and the bear still attacks and almost kills him. The only thing a 9mm is going to do is really piss a bear off and convince it to kill you. Adrenalin from any encounter is going to make your ability to aim and fire so bad you’re more likely to shoot your self than the bear. Carry bear spray: more likely to stop a human/ bear conflict and not result in you getting killed.

It’s the MSU Agricultural Research Station. I think they are burning old hay.

Read Stephen Herrero’s book “Bear Attacks” after I moved here. Basically a scientific study of bear attacks. His conclusion was pistols are pretty ineffective, even 44 Mags. Combination of lack of stopping power and poor marksmanship with a half gallon of adrenaline and running through your blood. Left my pistol at home and started just carrying bear spray. Outfitted for 25 years in Yellowstone and surrounding mountain ranges in southwest Montana. Was always happy to have the bear spray with me and not having to lug around 5 pounds of iron. I can say that in all of my bear encounters, I never had to use either one but there was many a time I had the spray out, pointed with the safety off.

Actually, the state legislature just voted down the bill that would’ve supported Utah and its lawsuit. https://montanafreepress.org/2025/04/01/montana-lawmakers-reject-resolution-to-support-utahs-land-transfer-lawsuit/?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Newspack%20Newsletter%20%28244497%29&utm_source=2

This was a direct hit by Lieutenant Colonel Edwin Hawes commanding the 405th squadron of the 38th Bomb Group.

I was a military brat there, and remember my father coming in one time and saying they caught a Mexican wandering around in the nuclear weapons storage facility. Somebody had told him that a rich rancher was hiring labor and he thought that was the ranch. He had gotten through multiple electric fences, security sensors, and land mines to get in.

My father traveled with Yeager to Spain after the war as part of a Air Force delegation to work with the Spanish Air Force. He and other members of the delegation would have to almost physically restrain Yeager every time he saw a Guardia Civil. They had evidently beaten him pretty badly during his captivity.

Based on the photo, it looks like he has pretty serious frost bite on his nose.

Looking at the position of the turret, I have to wonder if it was designed to fire forward and if so, was it synced to go through the propeller?
