Bear Creek Fire

The official record as of 10:09am today

The Bear Creek Fire is on the interagency wildfire record at 0 acres in Sheridan County, Wyoming. The figures below are the official record. A satellite heat map and day-by-day history appear here as soon as detections are attributed to this fire.

Three other fires are burning inside the same view. Pk Fire started on Friday 9 October, 5.2 miles east, and has reached 1,645 acres with 8 people assigned. Sawmill Fire started on Tuesday 15 September, 7.8 miles south, and has reached 0 acres. Marcum Creek Fire started on Monday 21 September, 9.7 miles west, and has reached 0 acres. Their heat is counted against them, not against this fire, and the pale rings on the map mark where they are recorded.

Smoke has been recorded lying over this ground six times so far. The thickest of it was thin between 2:10pm and 5:30pm local time. The last of those windows closed 137 hours ago, so what is overhead now is not known.

No satellite heat has been attributed to this fire yet — either it is too new for a pass to have caught it, or it is too small to register from orbit. Everything above is from the interagency incident record and updates as that record does.
