Good morning, this is your Bozeman Local Frequency for Thursday, December 11, 2025.
Around the valley today, eyes are on the mountains after a stretch of heavy, wet snow. Avalanche centers are flagging considerable danger in the Bridger, Madison, and Gallatin ranges, and across south‑central Montana, thanks to a heavy new snow load on a touchy early season snowpack. If you are thinking about ducking into the backcountry, this is a good morning to dial it back, stick to low‑angle terrain, or swap the skins for a coffee downtown instead. Forecasters also say we are in an odd pattern of abnormal warmth ahead of a late‑week cold snap, so conditions could change quickly on the roads and on the slopes.
In town, winter prep continues. The Montana Department of Transportation has been rolling out plows and new drivers to keep the passes and the interstate open, and local fire officials are pushing winter home safety after several high‑profile fires around the state. That means checking those space heaters and wood stoves before the deep freeze hits.
If you are looking for things to do today, there is no shortage. Outside Bozeman is hosting a Fly Tying Night this evening at Bozeman Fly Supply, starting around six. It is a free, laid‑back way to swap fishing stories, refill your winter fly boxes, and dream of spring creeks while the snow piles up.
Over at the Emerson, the Bozeman Ice Climbing Festival crew is putting on an Après Climb event in the ballroom from five to ten. Expect films, stories from local climbers, and plenty of stoke for Hyalite’s ice season, whether you are swinging tools every weekend or just curious what drives people up frozen waterfalls.
Montana State’s College of Arts and Architecture is hosting the Fall BFA Student Exhibition reception from five to seven, showcasing work from graduating art students and giving you a chance to see the next wave of Bozeman creatives.
And if you are in the mood for live music tonight, venues around town are stacked, from free shows at the Tune Up Bar and Bozeman Taproom to hot spring sets out at Bozeman Hot Springs, making it easy to pair a soak with some local sound.
This has been Bozeman Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
