Good morning, this is your Bozeman Local Frequency for Saturday, April 18.

Rise and shine, Bozeman! After a chilly week with lingering rain and snow showers, those trace flurries are finally clearing out today, leaving valleys mostly dry with no real accumulation to worry about. Winds are picking up a bit in the east but should calm down by evening, setting us up for warmer days ahead thatll have everyone itching to get outside. Perfect timing too, since Yellowstone National Park just swung open its north and west entrances yesterday around noon after a snowy delay. Folks from Gardiner and West Yellowstone can now cruise in early season, hitting spots like Mammoth Hot Springs, though some roads stay closed till May thanks to our unpredictable mountain weather. Call the park line at 307-344-7381 if youre planning a spontaneous adventurethose fresh views with lingering snow could make for epic photos and a quieter visit before the summer rush.

Sports fans, mark your calendars: its Brawl of the Wild day right here in town!

The Griz, sitting pretty at 12-7 overall and locked in as the No. 2 seed for next weeks Big Sky tournament in Phoenix, are riding a two-win streak and chasing back-to-back titles. Theyve owned the rivalry 12-4 since 2011, but the Cats have won the last two at home, turning Bozeman into a tough battleground. MSU at 7-11 is fired up too after recent home wins, sitting fourth in conference. Standouts like Griz senior Tom Bittner on a four-match win streak and Player of the Week Duncan McCall, whos dominating singles at 12-5, could swing this oneexpect hostile crowds, doubles fireworks, and pure Montana pride. Swing by for the action or follow live stats online; a Griz upset would send shockwaves through rivalry lore.
