West Fork fire as seen from Wolf Creek Ski Area mid-afternoon.

This is the fifth day of Red Flag warnings. As in previous days, the fires are very active during the afternoon burning period, especially on the north of the West Fork Fire and on the Papoose Fire.  At this time there are no additional road closures and because of the intensity of the fire and the heavy smoke we do not have any updates on acreage or any specifics on the movement of the fires.  When we have additional information we will post it on this site.
