WILDLAND FIRE MONITORING

Scanner traffic is raw, fast-moving, and may be incomplete. Always rely on official agencies for evacuation orders, road closures, and emergency instructions.

This is a scanner feed, not an emergency alert system. Operated as a personal out-of-pocket hobby+enthusiant project, this independent stream does not rely on but wholeheartedly appreciates community support to help cover fundamental operating costs. We aim for a humble $60/month goal to keep this service available for everyone in Missoula County.
