About BC Snow 406

Long after Belgrade's Main Street windows go dark, BC Snow 406 is still out working the grid of valley roads, plow lights the only color moving under a sky that this far from town still shows every star over the Horseshoe Hills. Working through the night means the mess is gone before anyone has to see it — commercial lots squared away, apartment rows opened up, driveways cut clean while the town sleeps. The Gallatin Valley catches wind funneling down off the Bridgers, and packed drifts along fence lines and lot edges take more than one pass to break loose, so the same routes get run twice when a heavy storm keeps coming down through the night. There's something steady about a route number and a plow that both say Montana — 406 on the door, the valley under the blade, one property at a time. Morning traffic on Jackrabbit Lane moves through Belgrade like nothing happened, which is exactly the point.
