A wildfire on Monday, August 22, threatened the Upper Little Warm Springs Creek Subdivision near Dubois, Wyoming. This video was taken from our property on Sugarfoot Trail. The Dubois Vol. Fire department, National Forest Service, Bureau of Indian Affairs, and Fremont Co. Firefighters responded to the fire. Air Tankers from Rapid City, South Dakota and Pocatello, Idaho joined in the firefighting, dropping fire retardant to stop the fire. It was a neat thing to watch! Thanks so much to all those who helped in getting the fire under control and saving the subdivision! Not a single home was lost!
Yup the little planes are called guide planes the guide the pm-3 or in this case pm-2 planes that drop the fire retardant and they dont drop it right on the fire they drop it in front of the fire so it doesnt spread.. the fire thats burning north of gillette right now they are doing that too its neat to see

Oh my goodness........what a scare.....here we are putting up hurricane shutters, and preparing for Irene to come in over us at Caswell Beach, and watching this video. How close a call.....so, so, so, very thankful no one was hurt, and no property was damaged. Laurie, you are brave to be up there watching and photographing the fire! Would like to hear more about the fire in other areas.....hope everyone is safe. Will give you a call soon! Thanks so much, Fred. Max and Vicki
