The cause of the fire that at Jackson Hole’s during the unsanctioned April 1st Gaper Day celebrations is unknown by authorities but word on the street is it involved a smoke shack in the woods and fireworks. Thankfully JHMR staff was able to extinguish the blaze before it spread to the surrounding glades. As you can see from this Reddit video, the fire was no laughing matter and very much not in the mischievous but good natured spirit of Gaper Day. Whoever started this fire, you know who you are and should be thankful nothing worse came of it.
