The Wildland Fire Program has two goals:
1. To suppress wildfires that are human-caused or that threaten people, property or resource values.
2. To ensure that naturally ignited wildland fires may burn freely as an ecosystem process.
Achievement of these goals involves maintaining fire readiness, reducing hazardous fuel loads, monitoring natural ignitions, and researching the effects of fire on Yellowstone's ecosystems.
To accomplish these tasks the Wildland Fire Program has several crews: Helitack, Suppression, Fire Monitors, and Fire Effects. In these web pages you will find information on the various parts of our program. Additionally we offer a current wildland Fire Report, information on Fire Ecology, the techniques of Prescribed Fire and Fire Suppression, and References and Links to wildland fire information.
The status of active fires is also posted on InciWeb (an interagency system that tracks fire-related incidents), Yellowstone's , and news pages.
The Teton Fire page provides additional info about other fires burning in the Greater Yellowstone Basin.
