The Horse Creek Fire, 20 miles south of Hysham in Treasure County, is estimated at 6,200 acres as of midday Tuesday. 
With a large storm front expected to move through Montana Tuesday afternoon, there is wide spread concern about this blaze.
The fire threatens at least two major infrastructure facilities. Both a pipeline and a major power connection from Northwestern Energy lie in the fire's path. As of Tuesday afternoon, the fire was still at zero containment.
There are 12 engines, a dozer and approximately 36 people working on the blaze. The growth potential for the fire is high, as it is burning in grass and timber in steep terrain.
