Smoke Chokes Valley From Storm Creek Fire
As you drive north on US 93 through the valley, you notice a little less smoke, especially as you reach Lolo and Missoula. The reason is most of the smoke in the mid-valley is coming from the 9,500-acre Storm Creek Fire just over the border in the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness in Idaho. That fire is approaching the Bitterroot National Forest.
Public Affairs Officer Tod McKay said the forest is starting Thursday to post local fire maps and daily updates throughout Ravalli County as the fire season continues.

The Rotary Club of Hamilton and Interact, their youth service organization, gave Bitterroot Valley Chamber of Commerce gift certificates to all of the classified staff in Corvallis School District on Friday.
The Rotary Club past president and Interact (International Action) Rotarian adviser Marilyn Morris said they have chosen the classified staff to support those who often go unacknowledged and unrewarded.
âA few weeks ago, Montana Rotary clubs were given the opportunity to apply for a $1,500 grant to assist with COVID relief,â Morris said. âThe Rotary Club of Hamilton chose a process where we could get the funding back into our local economy while acknowledging some of the Corvallis school district employees.â
