A ranger district is one part of the forest, run from its own office. A dispatch center takes fire reports and sends crews. A tanker base is where firefighting planes load.

Fires that started on the Fishlake

35 fires started inside the forest boundary since July 18, 2026, when our fire records begin. Together they cover 129,760 acres. An acre is about the size of a football field. These are the 10 biggest.

We only count fires that started inside the forest. A fire that started outside and burned in is not counted.

Talk to a real first-year wildland firefighter

Book a 30-minute call with Graham. He got a Forest Service fire job in Montana with zero experience and worked the summer of 2026. Ask anything: the application, the pack test, what the money really looks like, what to pack. Parents welcome.

“Talking with Graham was super helpful, he explained the hiring process and how to successfully reach out to fire crews. He is very knowledgeable on the different paths to becoming a Wildland firefighter and answered all my questions.”
Will C., after a call with Graham. September 2026.
