A northwestern Montana wildfire has burned 250 acres of state and U.S. Forest Service land southeast of Swan Lake.
It’s one of several small wildfires that broke out this weekend after a cool, wet spring delayed Montana’s fire season.
A type 3 incident command team will take control of the South Fork Lost Creek Fire on Monday.
Smoke is visible from Swan Lake, but the fire is not threatening any structures.
A 140-acre fire in the Bob Marshall Wilderness Area has closed some trails. A Flathead National Forest spokeswoman says the fire is moderate and smoke jumpers were on the scene Sunday.
Farther south, fire crews have been able to hold a weekend wildfire near Seeley Lake to 23 acres.
