Fires Started by People Drive Arizona Blazes

Two Arizona wildfires joined into one major blaze this week, both traced to human activity. Across the West, 1,198 of 1,317 Arizona fires and many in New Mexico and Colorado were manmade, driven by severe drought and dry conditions. Evacuees voice anger at hikers tied to the blazes, while rangers issue no burn tickets and communities consider rewards for arrests.
