More to come on this front.

Here's the Sheriff's report on the Rifle Road fire:

Thanks to the rapid response of numerous area agencies, a fire at a 
residence on Rifle Road was under control and kept from spreading in 
less than two hours from the initial report.
Around 11 AM on Sunday, Sept. 13, an explosion and a fire was reported 
at a residence on Rifle Road.
Quickly after the initial report, the Northern Rockies Type 2 Incident 
Management Team #5, which is in the county to assist on the Bridger 
Foothills Fire, coordinated rapidly with local resources to respond to 
the fire. Two helicopters working with the Team used buckets to drop 
approximately 4,000 gallons of water to douse the flames of the fire to 
keep it from spreading further into the timber. One structure was 
severely damaged by the fire, but no other structures were damaged or lost.
Thirty homes were given pre-evacuation notices by law enforcement on the 
ground in the following areas: Rifle Road, Winchester Road, Colt Road, 
Goes Nowhere Road, High Ridge Road, Woodchuck Road, and areas of Trail 
Creek Road. Those who have signed up with the Community Notification 
System were also remotely notified about the incident. Those warnings 
concluded at 1 PM after the fire was under control.
One person received minor injuries.
In addition to 10 Gallatin County Sheriff’s Office deputies who 
responded, other agencies that assisted included
