Wildfires

Wildfires – New Mexico

The Hermits Peak Fire began around 4:30 p.m. on April 6, 2022 after the Las Dispensas prescribed burn on the Pecos/Las Vegas Ranger District of the Santa Fe National Forest got out of control. Unexpected winds caused the fire to spread outside the prescribed burn boundary. The fire has now burned 312,230 acres and is 47% contained.

The Cerro Pelado Fire is about 7 miles east of Jemez Springs, south of the Valles Caldera. It has burned 45,605 acres and is 92% contained.
