Pack Trail Fire 2024

The lightning-caused Pack Trail fire was discovered September 15, 2024 and was burning 23 miles southeast of Moran, WY. The fire was burning on both the Bridger-Teton National Forest and the Shoshone National Forest in Western Wyoming. The fire’s location is in remote, rugged, and inaccessible terrain with few roads.

An Incident Management Team has suppressed the majority of the fire. The fire is in a patrol and monitor status as some interior smoke and heat are still present.  The fire area will be monitored by the Bridger-Teton and Shoshone National Forests as needed.  Winter weather and snow should continue to reduce fire and smoldering activity. 

Please use caution while driving near the fire areas, especially on narrow secondary roads due to snow or ice accumulation. Drivers are encouraged to visit https://www.wyoroad.info especially if you are planning to travel on  US-2 6 across the Continental Divide.

All evacuation areas within the Pack Trail Fire have been lifted. See the Fremont County Emergency Management Facebook Page or the  Teton County Emergency Management website for additional information. Residents and visitors are reminded to exercise extreme caution when dealing with fires or other ignition sources.
