At 1:00 or so Saturday it looked like a little camp fire had gotten out of control with a thin stream of smoke. Within 2 hours it had grown into a much larger fire that seemed to be about 1 mile across and the flames were clearly visible on the ridge line. It is a fire that you can watch grow right before your eyes at a distance. Again, this place is extremely dry right now.

Yeah, we live in Northern Colorado, but were visiting the Springs/family on Saturday, and after lunch at Fargo's, we spotted the small column of smoke that erupted into a huge plume by the time we left around 5pm.

Sad.
