Colorado forest fire sets state destruction record in White River NF
The 8,000 acre blaze in Eagle Colorado rippled across a 4 by 3 mile area, torching insect killed spruce and threatening the southern edge amid gusty winds. Firefighters total around 240 on the line with water drops, as winds shifted and crews fought to reestablish dangerous southern defenses. The Red Dirt Fire of 1975 previously held the record at 5,400 acres in neighboring ground, while the current fire sits in the Flattops Wilderness at elevations near 9,600 to 10,500 feet.
