Yeah I've been keeping an eye on it. It sounds to me like they are getting after it pretty good right now so hopefully the hot weather this week doesn't make things worse.
Access hasn't been an issue yet. The big fire is up on the eastern side of the valley and the smoke hasn't been too bad from what I hear.
Jehler, the friends are coming from Helena, I still don't have any here.

yeah, it's getting worse. my WMA is probably on fire now, unless they made a dozer line which will be great for growing knapweed next year
have you been up in Paradise before?

Been as far as Daily Lake. I can understand why they call it "Paradise Valley." It's a little busy for my taste but floating should be fun and hopefully a little less crowded. Plus, the Stone is one of the few rivers that doesn't have fishing restrictions on it right now.

agreed, too busy for me as well. Can't tell you how the fishing will be since even though i lived right on it, i still haven't fished the Stone. hopefully the smoke doesn't choke you to death!
