Hey All,
Has anyone heard of fires affecting the Bear Lakes Basin? I read there were some people who got lost around Italy Pass due to smoke issues. It may be a bit early to be asking this as I'm not headed there until late August.
Thanks in advance,

Hi Sctopdx,
Welcome to HST! They should easily have this wildfire under control by the end of
August, let's just hope that there will not be any others.

I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.
