The  Madison Arm Fire near West Yellowstone has increased in size this   
afternoon, and several roads are temporarily closed in the West   
Yellowstone area.


I don't have an update for today (Friday, 6/29), but for the information --  
yesterday morning the fire was reported as 900 acres, and it flared up  
considerably during the day. At 5:30 flame was visible from Highway 191 (as we  
drove out for the traditional Bill's-Eino's Giant celebration). The Baker's Hole  
Campground, which had been evacuated on Wednesday, was again evacuated as a  
precaution (oh, what fun Jere has had, and he had to miss yesterday's Giant  
because of it). However, we've actually had little smoke in town and seem to be  
safe here. A lot of the back, forest service roads are closed but no main  
routes.
