Week 8-25--31-12 - Butte, MT

Week 8-25 thru 8-31-12 - Montana:

 The sun rises through the smoke inversion in Butte

 View from a pass in the Bob Marshall Wilderness - the massive drainage can collectively collect only enough precipitation for a few trees in its base

 Elk cow and calf



 The 19 mile fire starts and grows 3000 acres in the next 24 hours just outside Butte, destroying structures in outlying communities

Thick smoke clouds roll in yet again from the series of large fires (>200,000 acres) in Idaho, the closest of which is 120mi away.
