Just came through Conifer and the winds are really blowing.

Scanner reports that the fire could be 50 acres in size now.

Per Jeffco Sheriff on name change.

USFS takes over, their name--their fire. Unprecedented but is what it is.

"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill

New Colo. wildfire prompts evacuations of homes

The new fire burning near Pine was small, but it was still a concern because it was producing large flames and headed toward a ridge.

The fire began in an area of the Pike National Forest that is not heavily populated but dotted with cabins and homes along the few roads.

Residents within 3 miles of the fire were told to leave immediately, and calls went to more than 400 telephone numbers, Jefferson County sheriff's spokeswoman Jacki Kelley said.

The area about 30 miles southwest of Denver was hit last year by the Lower North Fork Fire, which grew from a prescribed burn on state land to destroy or damage 23 homes and leave three people dead. The latest fire is about 4 miles away.
