Wildfires - Colorado, USA
Firefighters continue to battle blazes across Northwestern Colorado as high winds hamper efforts to contain the spreading flames.
The Wild Rose Fire southwest of Texas Mountain in Rio Blanco County has grown to 1,065 acres. Burning since Wednesday, the 360-person fire crew on the scene has contained 10 percent of the fire.
The Brush Creek Fire about 10 miles north of Rifle has been burning since Thursday, and has grown to 400 acres with the help of 20 mph winds. There are no structures in the area.
The previously active Ryan, Rope and Lime fires have been contained and are in “mop-up mode,”.
