Online, August 22, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Lolo, MT-Dunrovin Ranch in Lolo, MT is now playing host to Montana National Guard personnel from Helena and Missoula who will be assisting local firefighting crews in battling the Lolo Creek Complex wildfire.

In response to the wildfire, www.DaysAtDunrovin.com, an online social community based at Dunrovin Ranch, has created a page on their website to cover the progress of the Lolo Creek Complex wildfire and the authorities' efforts to stop and contain it. The live cameras show the Montana National Guard camp, the smoke and fire on the ridge across US-93, helicopters heading into the smoke and "slurry bombers" dropping chemical fire retardant on the wildfire.
Since the Lolo Creek Complex fire started on Sunday, August 18th Dunrovin Ranch has been providing shelter to evacuated neighbors and their livestock. The Montana National Guard arrived at Dunrovin Ranch early on Thursday, August 22nd and will be staying for an indefinite amount of time.
