Fire Danger Rises Again in Teton Ranger District
In the Teton Ranger District fire danger climbs for the third time this autumn with a burning index of 34 and a severity index of six on Monday. Don Nelson warns weather staying good could push danger into the 50s and hinder hunting prospects, urging campers to clear areas to mineral soil, drown fires completely, and smokers to use ash trays or choose bare ground. He notes seven man caused fires in the district over the last decade, with three from campfires and two from smokers.
