  • The Light Of Alaska: UMW Student Colton Folts Completes Internship At Snettisham Hatchery

    Colton Folts, a senior Ecology student at the University of Montana Western, gained valuable hands-on experience this summer through a credited internship at the remote Snettisham Hatchery in Alaska, contributing to sockeye salmon population management. The Snettisham Hatchery, located deep in Alaska’s backcountry and accessible only via a 40-minute bush plane flight from Juneau, is entirely off the road system. Managed by Douglas Island Pink and Chum (DIPAC), a nonprofit organization founded in 1976, the hatchery supports sustainable fisheries and local ecosystems by releasing hundreds of thousands of salmon annually. Originally built in the 1980s by Alaska Fish and Game near a hydroelectric plant that supplies 70% of Juneau’s electricity, the hatchery has been operated by DIPAC as a private nonprofit since the late 1990s. For Colton’s internship, DIPAC supplied him with a free flight, free housing, and free food for the six months of his employment. Day-to-day life at the hatchery during the first two months consisted of cleaning the juvenile fish starting tanks, feeding, and general maintenance of the facility. By midseason, Colton learned he would have the opportunity to work from July to September at a remote fish trap, counting salmon migrating upstream to spawn in Speel Lake, roughly 15 miles from the hatchery. At Speel Lake, Colton’s job was to record counts and log samples of fish species for Alaska Fish and Game. This work is extremely important, as wild salmon migrating back to the lake make up the parent population for hatchery fish, playing a vital role in overall fish production in the system. Commercial fishing for sockeye salmon in the basin does not open until an escapement count of at least 4,000 sockeye returning to the lake is reached, based on fish trap counts. Colton spent two and a half months at the backcountry fish camp, sharing an Alaskan bush adventure in a wall tent with one other hatchery employee. The day-to-day schedule at Camp Speel started at 6:00 a.m. with counting fish in the trap, gathering data, and performing trap maintenance. “When you live in a remote setting, work never really ends,” he said. After official duties, he spent evenings collecting firewood, repairing clothes, cooking, or maintaining camp facilities. “Everything in the bush takes ten times longer than it would in a regular home,” he added. Once the escapement goal at Speel Lake was met, Colton returned to the hatchery to conclude his internship by participating in the egg take. This process involved dispatching female sockeye and harvesting their eggs for the next year’s hatchery broodstock. Colton will graduate in May 2025 with a B.S. in Ecology. Having fallen in love with Alaska, he plans to apply to the law enforcement academy in Sitka, AK, aiming to become a state wildlife trooper. “Helping Colton engage in this internship opportunity in Alaska as part of his UMW student experience, and seeing him thrive, is one of the best parts of my job as a faculty member,” said Dr. Michelle Anderson, UMW Professor of Ecology.  For more information about Experience One and the University of Montana Western, or to schedule a tour, visit  www.umwestern.edu  or call 877-683-7331.

  • Highlands College Students Overcome Fear Of Heights To Earn Pre-Apprentice Line Certificate

    When Misty Gittleson, of Dillon, Montana, and Kaila Roberson, of Tennessee, began the Pre-Apprentice Line Program at Highlands College this fall, they both had the same major fear to overcome. “I have been afraid of heights my whole life,” Roberson said, adding that she went skydiving last year to help her overcome the fear. “I’m also terrified of heights, so the first week of class was very tough,” Gittleson said. “That was the hardest part for me. It’s more enjoyable after you start to trust your equipment.” Line workers are responsible for placing, maintaining and repairing power utility lines. The line program at Highlands College requires students to move heavy equipment, perched high above the ground on power poles 30 to 60 feet in height, in all sorts of weather. To get confident in the air, students climb to the top and throw each other weighted balls to learn to trust their equipment, to keep them in place, and take their hands off the pole. Gittleson and Roberson feel more confident after weeks of practice. “I still struggle to this day, but it’s just part of the program,” Roberson said. “You have to do it. I also didn’t know how to drive a stick shift, and I learned to do that, too.” Students earn their commercial driver’s license (CDL) as part of the program. They also learn how to calculate vector equations necessary to calculate voltage and rigging loads. “It’s physically demanding, but the math part is also hard,” Roberson said. “For anyone who wants to do this, be prepared that for the next four months you need to be solely focused on the program.” As young women in a male-dominated field, Roberson and Gittleson said there are additional challenges. “You’ve got to be tough,” Roberson said. “These guys are going to joke with you.” Gittleson approached being in the minority from a place of confidence and assertiveness. “If you need help, you just have to tell them to come help,” Gittleson said. Roberson recommends making friends. “You’ll never make it unless you get to be friends with the guys,” Roberson said. Gittleson said she enjoys the light-heartedness of her classmates. “With the guys, the jokes and humor are great,” she said. Gittleson has been dreaming of becoming a line worker since her sophomore year of high school, when her father, an oilfield worker, mentioned that it was a good career with steady work. Roberson said her interest in being a line worker sparked when she took an automotive class with someone who mentioned that they wanted to pursue the career. Her aunt, a former employee of power provider Southern California Edison, recommended the Highlands College program. "My friends and my family got me through this program, but mostly my mom,” Roberson said. “She's my support system." All their hard work will pay off on graduation day, Saturday, December 14, 2024, when they walk across the stage at the Montana Tech HPER. The Line Rodeo, which allows students to demonstrate their learned skills, will take place on Friday, December 13 from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm in the pole yard at Highlands College. For now, both women are planning on applying to utility companies in pursuit of an apprenticeship. Line workers are in high demand in the United States. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the industry will experience 8% growth from 2023-2033, which is faster growth than average for career fields in the U.S. The Bureau of Labor Statistics notes median pay for line workers in 2023 was $85,420 per year.

  • Dillon High School Senior Touts Advantages Of Automotive Technology Sprint Degree; Applications For Spring 2025 Now Open

    Megan Strickland Marketing and Communications Specialist Montana Tech When Beaverhead County High School senior Chase Brown crosses the high school graduation stage in May, he’ll be on track to launch a career as an automotive technician in a year. That’s because Brown took advantage of Highlands College of Montana Tech’s Automotive Technology Sprint Degree. The Sprint Degree program allows students to take the general education courses required for the Associate of Science in Automotive Technology degree online while in high school. Students then matriculate to Highlands College where they complete the hands-on portion of the degree in three semesters, including one summer session. “The Sprint Automotive Program is a fantastic opportunity for high school students to gain hands-on experience in the automotive field while simultaneously earning dual credit,” Director of Community Education and Industry Partnership Kinsley Rafish said. “These courses allow students to get a head start on their careers by acquiring technical skills that are in high demand. By earning college credit while still in high school, students save time and money, allowing them to enter the workforce or pursue further education with a solid foundation. The dual credit option opens doors for more advanced opportunities and helps students stand out in a competitive job market.” Brown has enjoyed the program so far. “I found out about the automotive sprint program through a small pamphlet that my high school counselor provided me with,” Brown said. “My experience with the program has been great. Thanks to Kinsley Bennett’s help, my progress through the program has been very easy and simple. The biggest challenge I have faced so far has been completing the required classes, but they were straightforward, and most teachers offer extra help when needed. My biggest triumph in the program was knowing that all my prerequisite classes would be complete before going to Highlands College for automotive mechanics.” Brown highlighted his favorite parts of the trade. “I enjoy automotive technology as there will always be something different in the workday,” Brown said. “Each project will be different from another and that is what makes the career interesting to me.” Brown encourages other Montana high school students to take part in the program. “I would recommend this program to students interested in trades,” Brown said. “The program allows students to enter the trade earlier, and with more affordable tuition than if they started the program after high school.” The program is accepting applications from high school seniors to begin in Spring 2025. The deadline to apply is January 8, 2025. Due to limited availability, acceptance into the program will be determined on a case-by-case basis. Scholarships may be available. To qualify, students will need to submit a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form.

  • Local Police & Sheriff Officers Respond To Man Walking Downtown With Shotgun Ends With Taser And Arrest

    On 12/15/2024 at 2:41am, Beaverhead County Dispatch center received a 911 call stating an individual was staggering down Montana St in downtown Dillon armed with a shotgun. Law Enforcement began responding to the area and Dispatch relayed that the male had turned onto Center St. Dillon Police Department, Beaverhead County Sheriff’s Office, and Montana Highway Patrol responded to the area. At 2:45am deputies and officers located the male as he turned from Center St onto Idaho St. As the first deputy arrived on scene, he attempted to speak with the male who began walking away from the deputy. Additional law enforcement arrived on scene and the male turned towards law enforcement and became confrontational. A brief standoff ensued as the male refused multiple commands to drop the gun and continued to be hostile and confrontational towards law enforcement. Several attempts to de-escalate the situation and communicate with the male were made. The male continued to walk backwards away from law enforcement and moved the shotgun in the direction of law enforcement multiple times. At 2:48am a deputy deployed their Taser which was effective. The male was momentarily incapacitated by the use of the Taser and dropped the shotgun as he fell. Law enforcement was able to quickly move in, secure the firearm, and took the male into custody. The male continued to be hostile to law enforcement and made multiple threats. He was transported and booked into the Beaverhead County Detention Center by Dillon Police on multiple felony charges. No video of this incident will be released at this time.
