08/10/2019 Swan Lake Fire smoke increases over weekend.

Swan Lake Fire responded to the warm, dry weather of this past week with increased activity in the Mystery and Thurman Creek drainages. More smoke has been observed and can be expected to continue for the next few days. Higher relative humidity and a shorter burn period as summer comes to an end will help continue to calm fire behavior.  The fire is being managed by a Type 3 incident management team. 
                      Smoke observed by firefighters during monitoring flight in Mystery Creek drainage. 8/9/19.
