I’ve now made it a priority to find this special Montana treasure, but I’ll have to get moving eastward asap if I want to catch it’s blooms this year! A quick literature search revealed that the most complete (and most interesting) description of Kelseya and the person it’s named for is still that which was written some 25 years ago for the second issue of this newsletter by our own Peter Lesica. Never being one to recreate a wheel, and considering Kelseya uniflora. Photo by Drake Barton. the many new members and friends MNPS has acquired since then, here is Peter’s story again.

  • Celebrate the Grand Opening of the Barmeyer Trail and South Hills Spur Open Space on June 3
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Celebrate the grand opening of the Barmeyer Trail and South Hills Spur open space on June 3 Contact: Five Valleys Land Trust: Pelah Hoyt or Whitney Schwab, 406-549-0755 City of Missoula: Elizabeth Erickson, 406-552-6267 In celebration of National Trails Day, the public is invited to explore the first new trail on Mount Dean Stone and the City's new South Hills Spur Open Space on Sunday, June 3 from 12:00 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. Five Valleys Land Trust and the City of Missoula, in partnership with REI and MTB Missoula, will host the grand opening of the 1.5-mile Barmeyer Trail, located on the foothills of Mount Dean Stone, within the City's South Hills Spur Open Space. The new trail loops through Pattee Canyon’s ponderosa pine and western larch forest on land donated to the City by the Barmeyer family in 2016 and protected using open space bond funds. The Barmeyer Trail and the South Hills Spur Open Space are part of the larger Mount Dean Stone Project—a multi-phased community initiative to create new protected open space and public recreation opportunities on more than 4,200 acres above Missoula's southside neighborhoods. The effort seeks to create a connected complex of open space lands between Pattee Canyon and Miller Creek. Mount Dean Stone's 6,200-ft peak is located just south of Mount Sentinel and is easily identified by its assortment of radio towers. The timbered draws and grassy slopes of the proposed complex offers the community an opportunity to expand access to trails and outdoor recreation while protecting important wildlife habitat and mitigating the risk of wildfire close to the urban fringe.

  • Mt Jumbo Avalanche Final
    Mount Jumbo Avalanche Accident Missoula, Montana Date: 2014-02-28 Submitted By: Steve Karkanen, Director, West Central Montana Avalanche Center (WCMAC) Location: Mount Jumbo, City of Missoula Conservation District Open Space Land (inside Missoula City Limits) State: MT Country: USA Fatalities: 1 Injuries: 2 Summary: 1 snowboarder caught and self arrested, 1 child caught and partially buried, 1 child caught and fully buried, recovered with injuries, 2 residents fully buried and recovered with injuries, 1 later died from injuries. Classification: HS-ARu-D3.5-R4-S,O Coordinates: N 46.8739 X W -113.9639 (at mid-crown) *** FULL REPORT FROM THE WCMAC *** View report and photos online at: www.missoulaavalanche.org SYNOPSIS On February 28, 2014 at approximately 1615 hrs, a snowboarder triggered a hard slab avalanche on a west facing, 35 degree slope of Mount Jumbo, located within the Missoula City limits on Missoula Conservation District land. The snowboarder was caught by the avalanche but able to self arrest by digging in with the edge of his board and using his arms and fingers to grab the bed surface as the snow passed by. The avalanche entrained most of the available snow in the fetch zone and accelerated as it advanced over a terrain convexity halfway down the track. At the base of the ravine, the avalanche caught two children, Phoenix and Coral Scoles-Coburn, ages 8 and 10, who were playing in their backyard as it slammed into and destroyed a two story wood frame home. The two residents of the home, Fred Allendorf, 66, and his wife Michel Colville, 68, were inside the house when it was hit.
