Fire prevention

Many parts of Wyoming are on fire, but, so far, Hot Springs County is not. We hope to keep it that way and ask for your help in doing so.

We can all do our part to avoid being responsible for starting a wildfire. However, lightning can still be an unexpected culprit.

Wildfire season is nearly over, and officials are gradually getting a handle on some of the fires around the state while others continue to rage. As numbers begin rolling in, the damages caused are astronomical.

In HSC, we are still under a stage 1 county fire ban. An explanation of the ban can be found on the county website at hscounty.com

Lets all remain diligent to avoid starting a fire. Also, be sure to report any sign of smoke that may indicate a wildfire.
