BREAKING: 150 Acre Miller Peak Wildfire Burning Not far From Missoula
Missoula, MT (KGVO-AM News) – The Miller Peak Fire is currently burning not far from Missoula.
I spoke with Lolo National Forest Public Information Officer Anna Bateson just after 6:00 p.m. on Sunday about the fire.
“The name of the fire is Miller Peak Fire,” began Bateson. “It’s located in the Plant Creek Drainage around Miller Peak, in the Miller Creek area southeast of Missoula, eight miles, and it is currently estimated at 150 acres. It is showing active fire behavior, and the cause is under investigation.”
The Miller Peak Fire was at 150 Acres as of 6:30 p.m. Sunday
Bateson said the fire is being fought with both ground and air resources.
“They’ve got ground and air resources on the fire,” she said. “The air resources are on it right now (as of 6:30 p.m. Sunday). There are both air and ground resources and more were in route. I’m not sure if they’re on scene yet.”
Both Ground and Air Resources are on the Fire
Bateson said there are homes in the area, but the prevailing winds are sending the fire up the Miller Creek Drainage.
“I believe there are homes just below it. The information I have is that the fire was moving northeast up the Miller Creek drainage. Stay tuned for more information. It’ll be posted on the Lolo National Forest Facebook page.”
