Residents in the Saddle Butte Subdivision were allowed to return to their homes Tuesday evening after being evacuated for two days while fire crews worked to contain the Saddle Butte Wildland Fire. At this time, the fire is considered 100% contained, although fire crews will continue to work to extinguish hotspots on the fire’s interior. In the meantime Bridger-Teton National Forest Incident Commander Dave Wilkins and Jackson Hole Fire/EMS Chief Mike Moyer have determined that the fire conditions on Saddle Butte are safe enough for residents to return to their homes. Officials remind the public that the area of the fire is on private property, and the area needs to be respected as such.
