Please stay away from river as they run fast, high, and cold, over the next several days.

Snow will make it very dangerous in the backcountry.

This is an especially dangerous time of year for wind and snow, because locals and travelers alike are looking to vacation, camp, and get into the great outdoors Western Montana has to offer and usually are not prepared for winter conditions during this time of the year.
