2018 Fire Season

Down in the SW corner of Colorado we are in day 12 of the 416 fire.  Currently 24,000 acres in size and 15% contained.  Horrible drought in the area this year and the fire is moving into difficult terrain so it's very much a situation of controlling the burn as best a possible in regards to structures which the Firefighting team has managed thus far.  No structures or injuries. If it keeps moving in the expected Northwestern direction it could merge with a second smaller fire which is around 1,000 acres.  As well, Purgatory Resort is north of it's location and currently is the base camp, but could be threatened as well.
