JACKSON, WY – The photos below illustrate the hard work of the rescue crews that battled the Saddle Butte fire in Jackson this past Sunday. Firefighters on foot, via helicopter, and planes worked diligently to contain the wildland fire that threatened homes and businesses in the area.
The fire is contained and no structures were lost. Evacuations were lifted last night, but crews will spend the rest of the week mopping up.
