How many local businesses can you spot? Bozeman, Missoula, West Yellowstone, Ennis, Big Sky and Yellowstone are all featured in this trip vid from Gretchen Powers.
A 43 year old Bozeman man suffered a broken leg after hitting a tree on his snowmobile outside of West Yellowstone on Saturday. He was choppered to Idaho.
Although we may see slush and rain in the valleys on Tuesday, mountain passes could see 2 - 5 inches of snow accumulation by Wednesday morning in southwest Montana.
A Winter Weather Advisory for snow has been issued for several locations in southwest Montana through Monday evening. High elevations should see several inches of snow with up to a foot accumulating.
Reasonably warm temperatures will return today combined with several inches of snow possible in the higher elevations. In town, rain or slush is your best weather bet today.
The Bozeman area is under a weather double whammy Monday with snow in the forecast along with possible high winds. Travel could be extremely dangerous at times on Monday through Tuesday morning.
Good ending to this story but a reminder to ALWAYS have more than a phone and some water with you. Cell phones don't always work in the boonies. Thanks to Gallatin County Search & Rescue.
