Swan Valley Connections (SVC) and the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes (CSKT) are excited to host an unveiling event for the new Elk Creek Conservation Area educational kiosk. 

The Elk Creek Conservation Area (ECCA)  is a square-mile parcel of land at the confluence of Elk Creek and the Swan River, owned and managed by SVC and the CSKT. The land was acquired in 2006 to protect vital fish and wildlife habitat, forest resources, and public access. The ECCA provides important habitat for grizzly bears, big game, and other wildlife species, and Elk Creek itself provides critical  bull trout habitat. There is a conservation easement on the property that protects these values in perpetuity.

The new educational kiosk provides visitors with information about the Swan Valley, the cultural significance of this land and its species to the tribes, and the history of the Montana Legacy Project and the Elk Creek Conservation area.  

This event is open to the public! We will meet at the Swan Valley Community Hall (6803 MT Hwy 83, Condon, MT 59826) at 10:45AM before heading to the kiosk site  for a blessing and unveiling of the new kiosk, with remarks from CSKT elders and members of the Culture Committee.  A provided lunch will follow, and attendees are then invited to join a short optional hike on the property, down to the Elk Creek and Swan River.

Quarterly Potluck: Lessons from the River: Wildlife, Water, & Working with Nature
Aug

Quarterly Potluck: Lessons from the River: Wildlife, Water, & Working with Nature

Swan Valley Community Hall, Hwy 83, mm 42.5, Condon
5:30 pm - Doors Open • 6:00 pm - Potluck Dinner • 6:30 pm - Presentation

Join us for our quarterly community potluck featuring a presentation about managing riparian areas and shorelines for biodiversity by Radley Watkins, Executive Director of Missoula Conservation District.

Lessons from the River: Wildlife, Water, and Working with Nature.

Rivers shape the landscapes we live in, and wildlife has long adapted to their natural rhythms. What can beavers, otters, and bald eagles teach us about creating a home that balances conservation with responsible land use? This talk explores how we can learn from wildlife while also covering the basics of stream permitting. By understanding both nature’s lessons and regulatory tools, we can better steward our waterways for future generations.

 

Radley Watkins Bio

Radley Watkins is the Executive Director of the Missoula Conservation District. With extensive experience in conservation, natural resource management, and land-use planning, he has worked as a wildlife ecologist, county land-use planner, and lake management consultant. He holds a degree in bio-geography from the University of Montana and a master’s in landscape ecology from Michigan Technological University. Radley is passionate about public education, habitat protection, and biodiversity. Outside of work, he enjoys exploring wild places with his family.

MCF manages more than $188.5 million in assets and administers more than 1,470 philanthropic funds and planned gifts. Our work with donors, charitable organizations, cities and towns plays a critical role in both philanthropic and community development. Since our founding, MCF has reinvested more than $100 million in Montana through scholarships, grants, and programs.”

SVBR Annual Bear Fair (Condon)
Jul
19

SVBR Annual Bear Fair (Condon)

SWAN VALLEY BEAR RESOURCES ANNUAL BEAR FAIR

Come learn about living in bear country from bear management experts, local professionals, and bear-related organizations, including USFS, USFWS, Vital Ground, Montana Land Reliance, and more. We'll also have inert bear spray cans for practice, a food truck, and a kids' activity table!

Presenters: Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks' wildlife management specialist Erik Wenum and grizzly bear research team member Milan Vinks.

Vinks will be presenting on his PhD research project:

"The Northern Continental Divide Ecosystem grizzly bear population is influenced by both forest management and wildfire activity. While early successional vegetation promoted by timber harvest and fire can provide forage for grizzly bears, associated roadbuilding and certain disturbance characteristics may negatively impact habitat. My research will provide information to assist managers in developing strategies that balance grizzly bear conservation and forest management."

The event is free & open to all from 12pm - 4pm at the Swan Valley Community Hall in Condon.


This event is made possible through a grant from the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation, with support from Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks, in partnership with Heart of the Rockies Initiative.

Wildlife Tracks & Sign Specialist Certification
Jun
19
to Jun 20

Wildlife Tracks & Sign Specialist Certification

The CyberTracker Track and Sign Certification is an internationally applied, professional-level certification used to promote wildlife tracking and knowledge. This two-day field experience is both an assessment and a training, with an emphasis on open dialogue and real learning.

The process during the Track & Sign Specialist evaluation is identical to the standard evaluation, excepting the following variation: At least 50 “very complex” spoor will be asked, with not more than 10 “complex” spoor. No “easy” spoor will be asked. In addition to this, 7 “extremely complex” spoor will be asked; No penalty is awarded for an incorrect answer on an extremely difficult question, but three correctly answered extremely difficult spoor cancel the mistake of one incorrect answer; thus, participants can rectify up to two mistakes during an evaluation and still earn their Specialist Certificates. Specialist evaluations are initially open to participants who have earned a Professional certificate. If there is still space two months before the evaluation, we will open the evaluation to participants who have earned a Level III certificate.

SPECIALIST CERTIFICATION ($575)

Class size is limited to 10 people; lodging and food not provided. 
This course fills quickly - early registration recommended.

Wildlife Trailing Certification with David Moskowitz
Jun
16
to Jun 17

Wildlife Trailing Certification with David Moskowitz

Spend two days in the field with professional wildlife tracker and educator David Moskowitz in this Cybertracker certification course .

STANDARD CERTIFICATION ($475)

Class size is limited to 4 people; lodging and food not provided. 
This course fills quickly — early registration recommended.
If you have questions, please email taylor@svconnections.org

At a CyberTracker Trailing Evaluation, every participant takes a turn as lead tracker. The goal is to follow an animal’s fresh spoor to locate it on the landscape, guide the group to approach and observe it, and, finally, to exit the area without alerting the animal to any human presence. Every tracking situation is different, so we are always in the position of having to “figure it out.” This uniqueness also results in variations to the exact experience of each participant, dictated by field conditions and animal behavior.

We assess every participant’s ability to follow spoor, recognize and interpret tracks & sign, anticipate where the trail is going, read the trail for danger, interpret the ecological context of the trail, and approach the animal, if the occasion arises.
