    Default Postive thoughts needed. *UPDATE*

    The 1000 acre family ranch that has been in the family since it was homesteaded in the 1900's was destroyed in the high park fire. I don't know full details as far as how much got burned but we do know the cabin that my grandmother lives in is a complete loss and as of right we do not know where she is. Send anything positive possible Please.


    not looking good in evac center or neighbors no one saw her and the jeep was burned to the frame

    :update:
    They found her she did not make it out of the cabin may she rest in peace.

    the ranch house made it but looking at the sat pictures every other building burned. have to move the cows up higher into the forest and start clean up when they let us back in.






    this picture is 1 mile from the ranch house

    Best of wishes there man.
    Have you tried calling the Larimer County Sheriffs and asked about Evacuation shelters ? Or maybe the Red Cross ?
    Just trying to help.

    All the best that your grandmother is someplace safe.

    I know people in Rist Canyon that have been evacuated.

    Man sorry to hear that! I think they were evacuating and had shelter set up in laporte at the school?

    My wife just said the 911 message said it was another "state controlled burn"?

    Positive thoughts inbound, brother. Hoping all is well for everyone. We know all too well how stressful these fires can be.
