Photos: Fire Dancers at Whitefish Christmas Stroll

Whitefish's Whitefire dancers were joined by members of Missoula-based MASC Artisans for a performance in the streets of downtown Whitefish at the annual Christmas Stroll. Dancers juggled torches, spit lamp oil into the air to create a burst of flame and even ate fire to excite the large crowd that gathered to watch the performance.
