Sand Creek Fire Update: Evacuations Downgraded | Butte News

The Sand Creek Fire is still active but under control as crews focus on fuel reduction and monitoring for smoldering spots, especially in dry areas. The Pioneer Mountains Scenic Byway stays closed while heavy equipment thins vegetation. Evacuation orders have been downgraded to “SET” in the Dingley zone, meaning residents should stay ready to leave if conditions shift. Though cooler, wetter weather has helped tame the blaze, officials warn that lingering fire activity remains a risk in less-precipitated zones.
