Last Tuesday, the Mineral County Resource Coalition met in the county commissioners room and attendance was light. So light that there wasn’t a quorum, but the agenda moved forward.

Highlights of the meeting started with Ryan Klimstra, Montana Fish Wildlife and Parks biologist for Region 2, sharing that the numbers for the 2023 big game hunting season are close to normal after the first three weeks of the season. 

He explained that the Fish Creek game check station wasn’t open the previous weekend because the numbers had been low, and FWP is shorthanded, but to plan on the next three weeks to check the species, their age and if any wolves had been spotted.
