Teton Interagency Fire

Heavy lightning passing over the Flat Creek and Kelly areas are responsible for the Gros Ventre Slide fire located within the GV wilderness area. Crews accessed the fire after crossing the Gros Ventre River to determine the fire's jurisdiction to be on the BTNF, burning in heavy dead and down timber. Firefighters have been granted mechanical use to fully suppress the half acre fire.

Thank you to the neighbors living in Kelly for the intel and support in locating the fire. 

8/14 Firefighters continue to suppress and mop up the fire hauling water from the GV river.
