    Default Is there a new fire?

    I live in Littleton by like ken caryl and I swear i saw a lot of Orange in the sky and a lot of smoke towards like Roxborough?

    was just wondering which fire this was from or if it was a new one?

    looked all over the news and couldnt see anything new... is there a certain website you guys go to to look for where the fires are being reported?

    thanks.

    Great place to see National Forrest info on fires; but will not include fires on private, public and state or municipal land like the one burning near the town of Elbert.

    Fire info is sometimes very difficult to get. Since the Waldo fire is burning west of Colorado Springs all local media is focused on it and has all but ignored 3 other local fires east and north of Colorado Springs that could have outpaced the Waldo fire if there was only a wind change.
    I say lets all remove the warning labels and let nature take its course.

    AFAIK the only fire started by lightning was the one up near Ft. Collins (High Park). I think the majority of the rest were man-made, but don't quote me on that.
