A sneak peek at tomorrow's print edition …  In tomorrow's print edition of the Montrose Daily Press, you can read about Charlie Winger, a Montrose climber, who at 88 became the third oldest person to summit Tanzania's Mount Kilimanjaro; and also about the reopening of the Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park following the South Rim Fire; as well as about a local man that's been charged with 84 counts of animal cruelty. Also, it's that time of year already — high school sports are ramping up and student athletes are diving into the fall season.
