Not my pic but is from last night of the fire just north of Durango on Hwy. 550. Over 3900 acres burned and more than 1000 homes have been evacuated. ------------- '18 Renegade Trailhawk '15 JKUR-Warn-AEV-Rigid-KC-ARB |

Working right down the road from this at Mesa Verde NP. Altitude makes it hard enough to catch my breath sometimes and for a few days when the wind was just right the smoke made it worst. ------------- '18 Renegade Trailhawk '15 JKUR-Warn-AEV-Rigid-KC-ARB |

Really growing. Glad I was able to drive up thru there a couple weeks ago. People and their homes are one thing but I think about the wildlife. https://www.outtherecolorado.com/fire-near-durango-continues-to-rapidly-grow-reaches-5100-acres/" rel="nofollow - https://www.outtherecolorado.com/fire-near-durango-continues-to-rapidly-grow-reaches-5100-acres/ ------------- '18 Renegade Trailhawk '15 JKUR-Warn-AEV-Rigid-KC-ARB |
