Here's your local news at a glance for Thursday, the 25th of June.
Good morning, Kalispell.
🌲 Environment
Foresters will mark trees at Lone Pine State Park this week ahead of a thinning project that plans to remove up to 30% of Douglas-fir trees in September to reduce dwarf-mistletoe.
Officials will plant additional trees next spring to boost forest diversity and use prescribed burns to revitalize native prairies.
🏛️ Government
The Montana Department of Transportation finalized design plans for a single-lane, three-legged roundabout at highway 2 and Batavia Lane near Smith Valley School in Kalispell to reduce severe crashes.
Contractor bids will open in 2027 and construction is expected that year — boosting safety for all road users.
Federal officials will begin salvage sales on over 11 million acres of national forestlands in northwest Montana and Idaho after winter windstorms caused widespread blowdown damage to reduce wildfire risk.
Ground and aerial surveys will target cut areas this summer (public comments accepted through June 29).
