Well, we made it through the heart and heat of summer without any major wildfires within our fire district, and this recent rain is certainly helping us breathe a huge sigh of relief.

We couldn’t do what we do without our dedicated Hungry Horse Volunteer Fire fighters and the strong partnerships we have with Martin City Fire Department , Coram/West Glacier Fire, Bad Rock Volunteer Fire Department & QRU , and The Forest Service - Flathead National Forest crews!

When the call comes in, we all pitch in together providing a stronger response from Bad Rock Canyon to Marias Pass and all the way to Spotted Bear.

Different departments. Different patches.
Coming together as one team serving the Canyon.

Thank you to all of our volunteers and partner agencies for another busy summer of keeping our communities and visitors safe.

Happy Tuesday from Hungry Horse!

Couldn’t pass up sharing this gorgeous sunrise as we welcome September. There’s just something about a quiet Montana morning that never gets old.

Here’s to a great day and a great start to a new month!

Early this morning, Hungry Horse Volunteer Fire Department and Martin City Fire Department responded together to two motor vehicle crashes.

The first involved a vehicle that left Highway 2 in the Berne Park area and entered the tree line.

No occupants were located at the scene. Bad Rock Volunteer Fire Department & QRU and Three Rivers EMS responded to this as well.

The second involved a vehicle traveling down Mountain Drive that crossed Highway 2 and struck a building.

Montana Highway Patrol is investigating both crashes.

Thank you to our volunteer responders for answering the call and taking time out of their busy days to serve our communities.

Stay safe and drive carefully!

Thank you to Hungry Horse Volunteer Fire Department for our mutual aid training tonight on MVAs and traffic control. It is always great to train with departments you respond with on real traffic scenes. Thanks Chief Lako for a fantastic training!

Today, we remember Montana Highway Patrol Trooper Evan F. Schneider, Badge #330, who lost his life in a motor vehicle crash on August 26, 2008.

Eighteen years later, his service, sacrifice, and dedication to the people of Montana are not forgotten.

Rest easy, Trooper Schneider. Your service and sacrifice will always be remembered. 💙

🔥 FIRE WEATHER WATCH — THIS WEEKEND 🔥

The Hungry Horse area sits right along the eastern edge of the Fire Weather Watch in effect Saturday afternoon through Sunday morning.

While we may be on the edge of the Watch, fire weather doesn’t stop at a line on a map.

⚡ Dry thunderstorms are the biggest concern. Lightning can start fires with little or no rainfall, sometimes in remote areas where they may go unnoticed at first.

💨 Strong, erratic outflow winds of 25–40 mph can accompany these storms. If a fire starts, those winds can cause it to spread rapidly and change direction with little warning.

🔥 What you can do:
• Debris burning is currently closed.
• Consider postponing campfires when thunderstorms or strong winds are possible.
• Never leave a campfire unattended—make sure it is cold to the touch before leaving.
• Avoid activities that can create sparks around dry vegetation.
• Secure trailer chains and never park over dry grass.
• Properly dispose of ci******es.

A Fire Weather Watch does not mean a fire will occur. It means conditions could come together that make fires easier to start and much harder to control.

Please use extra caution this weekend, stay weather aware, and report smoke or wildfire immediately to 911.

Today, fire danger in our area has been raised to VERY HIGH.

While there are currently no campfire restrictions, open burning is not allowed.

If you choose to have a campfire, please remember:

- 🔥 Campfires should be 3 feet by 3 feet or smaller and contained within an improved fire ring.

- ⚠️ Check for any fire restrictions before lighting a campfire, especially on private industrial timberlands, conservation-minded private properties, and Block Management Areas, where restrictions may differ from surrounding public lands.

- 💧 Always have a water source and a shovel readily available.

- 🚫 Never leave a campfire unattended. If you're not actively enjoying it, put it completely out.

- ✅ Ensure your fire is dead out before leaving it.

Remember, you are solely responsible for any fire you start. With the current hot, dry conditions, it only takes one escaped ember to cause a wildfire. Please use good judgment, know the rules where you're recreating, and help us protect our forests, our neighbors, and our community.

Join us as we pray for Spokane. As light emerges and the devastation is realized of just how quickly a wildfire can consume and spread not only through the forest but also into the interface areas of our cities as well.

July kept your Hungry Horse Volunteer Fire Department busy! Below is a look at the calls for service we responded to during the month.

These numbers don't include the countless volunteer hours spent supporting our 4th of July celebrations or our water tender's deployment under contract with the Montana DNRC to assist on the Trumbull Creek Fire north of Columbia Falls.

We appreciate the dedication of our volunteers, who continue to answer the call whenever our community needs them.
