We're heading into a busy time of year in Kalispel

We're heading into a busy time of year in Kalispell and the Flathead Valley. But before things get too western, here are some things you should know.

1. We love visitors. No, really. Sure, you might encounter a Grumpy Gus along your travels, but don't let them get to you. They're probably tired or maybe they just need a snack. (PS: Snacks do not apply to wildlife - never feed them.)

2. Pick up after yourself, friend. This is a big deal for us. You see, we live in one of the most beautiful places in the country. And sometimes, folks don't treat it quite like they should. When you're here, chip in and do your part. Pick up after yourself, never litter and always stay on the trail.

3. Be cool. The truth is that people love Kalispell, which means it gets mighty busy around here. Pack your patience, slow down and soak up Montana time.

4. Be you, but have respect. People around here are pretty accepting and are naturally nice. When you're here, take a deep breath and breathe in that fresh mountain air and become one with this place. Be kind, say please and thank you, don't tailgate, pull over if cars are lined up behind you, book a guided trip, tip your servers and shop locally.

5. Make sweet memories. We want Kalispell and northwest Montana to be a place you think of fondly. Take your time, get off the beaten path and knock those bucket-list experiences off your list.

This time of year means bears are out and about, which also means you need to be bear aware. When you hike, be sure to let wildlife know you're there.

Our friends at @backpackermag have a few great phrases that you can use in place of the saying "Hey bear!"

-“My dearest bear, I humbly request that you refrain from doing me physical harm.”
-“The ground is lava!”
-"Just belt out Nickelback."
