The CSKT Water Compact is just one of the many important negotiated agreements that our state has entered into over a long period of time with the Indian tribes of Montana.

Recovery from surgery has multi-faceted aspects. In my considered opinion, most aspects don’t bear the attention we tend to give them. The grim reality is that we get to go through the discomforts, fears, outright pain, immobility, etc., whether we want to or not, whether we give energy to the process or not.

Wednesday afternoon at the Four Seasons Arena in Great Falls, the Bears used a 17-2 second-half...
GREAT FALLS - The Box Elder Bears are like a heavyweight boxing champion. Normally, they land their knockout punch and devastate their opponent into defeat, but Wednesday at the Northern C tournament, they didn't land it and in the end they simply couldn't overcome the counterpunch of the Highwood Mountaineers. The Bears, who are the defending Class C boys basketball state champions, will have to take a longer and more difficult road to get back to the state tournament to defe...
