Forest Fires Now Under Control In Montana Region
The White River fire near the Sun River drainage is under control after about three weeks with patrol by Arthur Bateman and a peak crew of 150 firefighters. About two thirds of the burned area held timber, and 25 miles of trails were cut to reach it. The Sun River fire, started by a campfire, is also in good shape with adjacent timber carefully patrolled. Landers Fork fire burned three sections of valuable timber, was trenched and back-fired, and poses little danger. Several smaller fires occurred but were kept from serious proportions. Campers are urged to fully clear duff and inflammables and extinguish fires thoroughly. A new fire was reported on Red Shale creek with crews deployed under Rush and Peterson.
