Mark -

In the northern end of the Bitterroot Valley. Yes - the smoke has been pretty bad the past couple weeks. It has ranged from uncomfortable, to unhealthy, to hazardous, the way the air quality folks rate it.

The Mustang Complex fire down in Idaho is about 320,000 acres as of this morning, It is really affecting the southern end of the Bitterroot Valley. There is the Sawtooth fire west of Hamilton that is causing major problems for the people down in that part of the Bitterroot Valley. Up here, we are probably getting minimum effect from the Mustang, a noticeable effect from the Sawtooth, and major smoke pollution from the Powell Complex which is just across the Idaho border to our SW and is now somewhere around 45,000 acres.
