Crow Creek Blaze On North Fork

The small town of Cody is covered by a thin veil of smoke today from  two burn area.  A fire started in Yellowstone Park which closed the West Yellowstone and Jackson side to visitors off and on throughout the day. The  Jackson school was on its way to play the Cody JV and Varsity Volleyball team, but due to the fires, couldn’t get throught the park.

A second fire on the North Fork’s Crow Creek is also burning.  It is thought that a lightning strike that hit several weeks ago has been left smoldering, and that Wednesdays dry weather and mild winds flared it up. There are several firefighters and a helicopter trying to keep it under control. The smoke from the 2 fires can be seen over town.
