Yellowstone Fire Danger Reduced

October 1, 2012 Greater Yellowstone, State of Wyoming No Comments
fire-very high

Yellowstone National Park Friday joined Grand Teton National Park, Bridger-Teton National Forest and Teton County in reducing the fire danger rating to “very high” following a week of weather that brought a little more moisture to the area.  However, unlike their neighbors to the south, Yellowstone does NOT have any fire restrictions in place.  Currently there are four wildfires within Yellowstone, only one of which is still active – the Cygnet Fire southeast of Norris Junction currently involves 2835 acres.

    Every once in a while, on my way into town or coming back home, I get to watch a fox family play. It’s a simple thing, but it’s often the highlight of my day. I’ll tell you why on today’s show. [...]
