JACKSON HOLE, Wyo. — Recent heavy rain has been very welcome. Still, area fires persist as does the danger of new starts.
Located at the headwaters of the Little Granite Creek, this two-acre fire called the Little Granite Fire was discovered Tuesday, August 3. It is unknown how the fire started.
Six firefighters are on-scene following a full suppression strategy. The fire is currently burning in a mixture of both aspen and mixed conifer with moderate spread potential.
