Wildfires!

Multiple fires in the Conifer/Foxton areas. Hundreds of homes evacuated. Foxton Rd. closed at 285.

This is a very bad day for a fires. Winds are gusting to about 50 mph. Multiple fires being fought by Elk Creek, Evergreen, and Intercanyon Fire Departments. State assistance offered and accepted.

More info on the fires here: http://www.pinecam.com/

Update: I think that they got them all put out. Seems like the one at Foxton burned about 12 acres, but my understanding is that it's out now.
