Another fire in Whitefish Range

Firefighters were pouncing on a 35-acre blaze south of Werner Peak and north of Big Mountain Friday night, the Forest Service reported.

Six engines, four helicopters, and an air tanker responded to the incident.

No further information was immediately available.

The fire is the second in the Whitefish Range this week. The Hay Creek Fire northwest of Polebridge has grown from 50 to 500 acres in the past couple of days.
