Conditions require extra fire caution By Suzy Macy Fire Technician Hunting season is here, and Warm Springs Fire Manage ment would like to remind hunt ers and outdoor enthusiasts that the fire danger is still very high. The combination of dry weather and high temperatures this summer have created a tin derbox situation in our forests and wildlands, a situation that will not change in the near fu ture, not until there is more rain fall. If you are planning to spend some time outside hunting, fish ing or camping, please be aware of fire restrictions before you leave. At the present time there is no open burning, and some ar eas are closed to public access. Fires start easily and spread very rapidly in these dry condi tions. Hunters are often times in areas that are remote. A fire started in a remote area may not be detected until the fire is large and difficult to control. These types of fires arc dev astating and may destroy pre cious wildlife and our natural resources, as well as endanger the lives of firefighters and other people in the area. Here are some tips to avoid a wildland fire from happening: Drive only on improved roads. Vehicles driven across dry grass may start a fire from a hot muffler or other high-heat com ponents under the vehicle. Use extreme caution when smoking and only smoke in an enclosed vehicle. Never throw W.S. Wellness Center to host October activities The month of October will see many community activi ties, from the Kah-Nee-Ta Fall Run to the Halloween Car nival. Many of the events are sponsored by the Community Wellness Center, so for more information call the center at 553-3243. The October activities kick off with the Kids Retreat (Day of Healing) on Friday, Oct. 10. This is from 8 a.m. till 5 p.m., for ages 5-18 with parent or guardian. This will be at the wellness center social hall. Next is the Kah-Ncc-Ta Fall Run is set for Saturday, Oct. 11. Prc-rcgistration will be at 9 a.m. Then on Oct. 23 is the Great Pumpkin Party, starting at 6 p.m. in the social hall. On Oct. 29, the wellness center gym will be the scene of a special I Iallowccn movie presentation. And then on Oct. 31 is the Halloween Carnival. rWA Jvf Austin Smith said he is thinking about going into the military when he graduates. The things he likes about high school, he said, are being around the other students, and keeping busy with school work. August Scott has played foot- matches, cigarettes, cigars or any other burning material from your vehicle. Please use your ashtray. Never smoke while traveling through wildland areas, whether on foot, horseback or on an ATV. If permitted start campfires only in designated areas. Make sure campfires are dead out before going to bed or leaving camp. Keep a shovel and a 5 gallon supply of water close to the campfire area. Charcoal bri quettes should be immersed in water until they are cold to the touch. Please check the fire precau tion level before starting a camp fire, even in a designated area. If the level is at a 4, which is the case now, then there is a ban on any and all burning. Please use areas where poten tially flammable materials are absent for target practice. Wild land fires have been started by target practice, sparks can fly from a bullet striking a metal can or rock and igniting dry grass or leaves. If you should see a fire, note its location, get to a phone and call 9-1-1. Warm Springs Fire Management is aggressive in its attack on wildland fires, and the sooner they can reach a fire and attack it, the chances of the fire turning into a large wildland event are decreased. Please enjoy your time in the woods, and remember to be safe not sorry. If you have any questions or concerns please contact Fire Management at 553-1146. Buffalos 71.

Santos was using a .243 and estimates the shot covered 350 yards. He brought the deer's head to Natural Resources, where a brain tissue sample was taken to test for chronic wasting disease.
