Watch as a bear casually crosses the street in downtown Polson, Montana — with Flathead Lake in the background! This rare moment was caught on camera by Clearwater Properties and shows just how wild life in the Valley can be. | Daily Inter Lake

Today’s timelapse from Polson is full of quiet drama. Morning mist lingered over Flathead Lake, slowly giving way to crisp blue skies, while the Mission Mountains glowed with late autumn light. After you watch this one, don’t miss the Arlee timelapse—today’s sunset over the Missions was pure gold.

Looks like Flathead Lake had some real mood swings today — clouds rolling fast, bits of sunlight breaking through just long enough to paint the water in silver and blue. The Mission Mountains even peeked out between storms. Tomorrow’s forecast: partly cloudy with highs around the mid-40s, so we might catch more of those dramatic sky moments.
