A post shared on the Lander Rural Fire FCFPD Facebook page on April 6 states that Fort Washakie Fire, Lander Rural Fire, Morton-Kinnear Fire, and Battalion #1 were all dispatched to reports of a tractor fire that afternoon.
Heavy winds caused the tractor fire to spread to a hayfield, the post states, but crews were able to extinguish the fire before it reached the nearby river bottom.
No injuries were reported.
