About Highland Site Services

From up on the Bench, Kalispell often sits under a low gray blanket of inversion fog on winter mornings while the higher ground stays clear and bright - a split in the weather this crew has learned to read before it even checks the radar. Highland Site Services runs its routes on that higher ground first, since the fog can hide ice that never quite burns off down in the valley bottom, then works down into town as the sun starts to break through. Driveways up here catch more wind too, so drifts pile against garage doors in ways a flatland lot never sees, and the blade work adjusts accordingly - deeper passes, careful attention to the leeward side. By midmorning, whether a property sits above the fog line or down in it, the driveway is open and the walk is salted. The view from up top, once the fog burns off, makes the early start worth it.
