The
Runaway Spearhill Fire Burned Across 60000 Acres
The Spearhill Moosehorn area faced a multi day wildfire believed by R M of Siglunes and L G D Grahamdale chiefs to originate from spring burns by natural resources staff in Ashern. About 100 firefighters with air and ground support fought the blaze threatening homes and farms. Ashern denial was issued by district supervisor. Ducks Unlimited seeks a 1.5 million project at Whitewater Lake to impound and flush salts by backflooding three creeks and releasing water later in the summer.
