Campground near Hungry Horse Reservoir under mandatory evacuation

Flathead National Forest

All campers in the Emery Bay Campground and dispersed camp sites in the area are under mandatory evacuation order. The Flathead National Forest service issued the evacuation order around 7 p.m. Thursday due to the Ridge Fire burning more than 600 acres near the north end of the Hungry Horse Reservoir. The agency says all campers in the Emery Bay Campground need to leave immediately due to the fire’s spread.
