Wyoming Wildfires May Grow Larger

Fire managers say wildfires burning in northwest Wyoming have the potential to grow more this week. Three fires are burning in the Bridger-Teton National Forest and one in the Shoshone National Forest. The Norton Point Fire, about 25 miles north of Dubois, is the biggest at about 23,000 acres. It is burning in dead trees. Two fires in the Gros Ventre Wilderness have burned about 10,000 acres. Firefighters are letting the fires burn for the most part although they have been taking some control measures on the more active Gray Hills Fire in the Gros Ventre. (gro vaunt)
