In this photo taken Sunday a fire burns next to Lake McDonald in Glacier National Park in northwest Montana. The fire, which was started by lightning on Saturday night, forced evacuations in the most heavily trafficked area of Glacier National Park on Monday and destroyed an unknown number of structures around Lake McDonald during the height of tourist season. The National Park Service said the 25-site Sprague Creek campground was being evacuated, a day after the fast-moving fire forced the evacuation of 82 rooms at the historic Lake McDonald Lodge. A second campground with 87 sites and some private residences also were evacuated.
