Join us for good times while supporting a good cause! Food trucks, ice cream and bar will be available, and a portion of the evening's revenue from the bar and ice cream will be donated to Flathead Avalanche.
Flathead Avalanche, a partnership between the Flathead National Forest Avalanche Center (FAC) and the Friends of the Flathead Avalanche Center (FOFAC), is committed to reducing avalanche incidents and fatalities in Northwest Montana through forecasting, education, and outreach.
Flathead Avalanche is Northwest Montana’s Tier 1 avalanche center, providing daily avalanche forecasts and safety information across an approximately 1,800-square-mile forecast region—roughly 1.2 million acres of public land—from the Ten Lakes area near Eureka to Marias Pass and south to Condon. We forecast for the Whitefish, Flathead, and Swan ranges, as well as portions of the Apgar, Livingston, and Lewis ranges in Glacier National Park, serving both motorized and non-motorized winter recreation users.
Our daily forecasting season typically runs from November/December through April/May, depending on conditions, with approximately 125 forecasts issued each winter, seven days a week. In addition to forecasting, Flathead Avalanche provides youth avalanche education, public motorized and non-motorized avalanche courses, free community outreach programs, maintains six weather stations, and offers free forecasting tools and daily advisories through FlatheadAvalanche.org and the Avy App.
