Fire Season Is Here
Author: MT Department Of Natural Resources

Cloud-like smoke reported near Whitehall wasn’t from a Montana wildfire, but a large fire burning near Salmon, ID.

The DNRC map shows regional fires burning north of Helena, north of Livingston, and in Wheatland County.

While we have enjoyed much needed rain this year our annual fire season is nev¬erthess upon us. Please be mindful when hiking and camping to control all open flames and equally mindful of your health with smoke in the air.
