November 20, 2023 Pile Burn Update
Lolo National Forest Prescribed Fire Operations
Publication Type: Announcement 11/27/2023
Pending conditions, the Superior Ranger District will conduct pile burning today to reduce hazardous fuels from previous vegetation management operations.
Superior Ranger District: Firefighters will initiate up to 25 acres of pile burning operations on two different units located 8 miles southeast of Superior. Smoke may be visible from Superior and Interstate 90.
Pile burning is only implemented under the right conditions. Favorable conditions include correct temperature, wind, fuel moisture and ventilation for smoke. When these criteria are met, firefighters implement, monitor, and patrol each burn to ensure it meets forest health and public safety goals including air quality.
