On Feb. 25, the West Yellowstone Ski Education Foundation is hosting the annual Taste of the Trails, an event designed to encourage skiers of all ages and abilities to try cross-country skiing in a simple and festive format. A 5-kilometer (3.1 mile) course will take skiers and snowshoers around gentle rolling terrain on the Rendezvous Ski Trails.
Four feed stations are staffed by volunteers along the way so participating skiers can enjoy homemade snacks and beverages. Skiers can casually stride from spot to spot, revel in the winter landscapes, refuel with friends, and explore the trails in a relaxed, non-competitive atmosphere.
The ticket includes stops at the four feed stations. There are stations devoted to appetizers, soups, main dishes and desserts. Skiers must have a Rendezvous Ski Trails trail pass, available for purchase at Freeheel & Wheel located at 33 Yellowstone Avenue, or at the Trailhead Building located at 201 S. Geyser Street. Taste of the Trails tickets must be purchased in advance. Purchases can be made online at skirunbikemt.com/taste-of- the-trails.html

My Barking Dog is a nightmare comedy that tells the story of Toby and Melinda, two lonely people whose lives are forever changed the night they encounter a starving coyote at their apartment building. Over time they grow to expect him, leaving ritual offerings to entice the coyote every night. Toby and Melinda forge a connection over this visitor and share curiosity and concern about his presence in the city. The coyote expands their world–until, one night, their world is shattered. Their lives are pushed suddenly into uncharted territory, sending them on a surreal odyssey that changes their city–and the world–forever.
Directed by LX Miller. Starring Max Schneider and Denise Hergett
