Although firefighters fought a blaze that tore through the dry grass alongside State Highway 34 in Thatcher last Friday, it didnât burn enough to fill the skies with the smoke that blankets the county.
The fire did cause second degree burns to the hands of a Caribou County Fire Fighter who was helping douse the blaze.
The fire jumped a break into a sagebrush that blew up, searing her hands, said another firefighter from Caribou County. She was treated by the Franklin County Ambulance Crew, which reached the site â just east of the Thatcher Elementary School â before the Caribou County ambulance arrived.
