MISSOULA â Fire agencies are pleading with people to use every precaution recreating in Montana as wildfires continue to break out.
The Lolo National Forest has already had 50 fires this year, over 40 of those caused by people and the statewide numbers show an alarming spike in fires from people s mistakes. Across the state, as of today from the beginning of the year, we ve had over 900 fires that have burned over 76,000 acres,â Kristin Mortenson with the Montana Department of Natural Resources and Conservation (DNRC) noted Friday. âAnd over 80% of those fires have been human-caused. And that is what we can prevent. Those human-caused fires are 100% preventable.
