Fire danger shoots up

Relief from fire danger in the area was short lived, and now Teton Interagency Fire advises it has climbed back up to high for Grand Teton National Park, the Bridger-Teton National Forest and the National Elk Refuge. A high fire danger rating means fires can start easily and spread quickly. While fire restrictions have not been reimposed, public land users can help prevent wildfires by not having a fire at all and instead dressing for success with layers and warm clothes.
