Bison made Plains Indians some of the richest people in the world. I visited the Wind River reservation to see how Native American folks are bringing the buffalo back. https://t.co/8BFOiPb9lG

Don't get me wrong, Jordan River restoration & utilizing more transit is good. Just let more people enjoy it...

A brand-new, "sustainable" town to be created on state-owned land in Utah would house 24 people per square mile. That's a sprawling suburb, folks. https://t.co/ytNDa6R1hd

PSA: @soljourno is the best. Thanks, y'all.

This is objectively sad but we’re grateful for all of @BitterrootMag’s wonderful work. Wishing you the best @jakebullinger!

[Jake Bullinger @jakebullinger]

Thank you, Jules — that means a lot. All of you at SJN were so tremendous to work with

[Julia Hotz @hotzthoughts]

So sad to hear @BitterrootMag is bidding farewell. Some of the best @soljourno producers out there, who really understood the art of storytelling. @jakebullinger, thank you for your wonderful work! You have touched so many lives - and we are grateful!

@ScolesSarah @austinmprice @olsmad @MorganKrieg @ModernWestPod @vertuelab @soljourno @maggiejmertens And with that, I'm going to go spend some time with my son, lick my wounds, and tend to the native-plant restoration project that is my yard. So long, all.

Another from @ScolesSarah, this one on some scientists who are making us take climate change and diversity in science more seriously: https://t.co/YfZlksdUkF

@ScolesSarah @austinmprice @olsmad @MorganKrieg @ModernWestPod @vertuelab @soljourno @maggiejmertens Finally, thank you to our readers and to the folks who shared their stories with us. If Bitterroot facilitated even one connection, one shared idea, that makes the West a better place, then we did our job.

@maggiejmertens @szarlotka @AlisaReznick @KimhCross talked with a guy who swam the entire length of the Boise River. Important observations for our parched region: https://t.co/5FAuBNFWI4

[Jake Bullinger @jakebullinger]

More dap to come for @maggiejmertens, but I'll start by sharing these two stories that I reference in conversation *all* *the* *time*

On childcare: https://t.co/4KMKjt3Taj

@maggiejmertens @szarlotka @AlisaReznick I love how Kitty Galloway (no twitter!) tapped into mountain-town culture, esp her stories about how guides have rallied around mental-health care (https://t.co/nCbpn6ObPl) and how social media dictates which adventure athletes we notice (https://t.co/ZDCe8W8VD4)

Sad news today: After two years of covering the West's politics, economy, culture, and environment, @BitterrootMag is coming to an end. I shall now pour out gratitude in a thread ...

[Jake Bullinger @jakebullinger]

@BitterrootMag @ScolesSarah @levipulk @WroteElizabeth @jlbuch @AlisaReznick @mhgreen3000 Back when Trump admin initiated its remain-in-Mexico policy, @m_ines_taracena profiled a community center whose goal was to keep Nogales youth from feeling they needed to go north: https://t.co/PcPuRbuq8a
