Missoula Ranger District: 

Pending conditions, pile burning operations will take place today on the Missoula Ranger District to reduce hazardous fuels from previous vegetation management operations. 

Firefighters will conduct up to 5 acres of hand pile burning up Ranch Creek, 10 miles up the Rock Creek drainage.  Residents near Rock Creek may see some residual smoke overnight.  Firefighters will implement, patrol, and monitor the pile burning over the next few days.
