📰 News we're reading
• You (probably) still have a month left in Yellowstone (powelltribune.com) — If you live in Powell, you still have time this month to enjoy quieter, wildlife-filled trips into Yellowstone and up the North Fork Highway. A longtime former neighbor describes favorite fall routes, from early-morning drives and breakfast stops in Cody to day trips to the East Gate, with practical reminders about weather, four-wheel drive, and watching for bears and other wildlife. 
• Three more grizzly bears killed on North Fork Highway (wyomingnews.com) — Powell-area photographer Tim O’Leary discovered three grizzly bear cubs killed by a vehicle on the North Fork Highway, a route many local residents use to reach Yellowstone. Wildlife officials say at least seven grizzlies have died in vehicle strikes this year and urge drivers heading between Powell, Cody, and the park to slow down, especially in the dark, as bear conflicts and mortalities continue to rise.
