This Friday photo shows the charred landscape caused by the White Draw Fire north of Edgemont, S.D. Ranchers in the Edgemont area said Friday they’d like better communication with interagency wildfire officials when crews fight the blazes in South Dakota’s Black Hills. Sen. John Thune visited with firefighters and ranchers Friday in the corner of southwest South Dakota, where a blaze scorched nearly 14 square miles of grasslands and timber, primarily on National Forest lands.
