Aspen Acres Fire Updates and Evacuation Changes | Denver News

The Aspen Acres Fire in southern Colorado, now burning for weeks and devouring nearly 98,000 acres, has forced hundreds to flee—but relief is on the horizon. Evacuation orders have been lifted for Signal Mountain and Colorado City, allowing residents to return home with re-entry cards, though they must stay alert. Still, over 260 homes are gone, and Rye and Beulah remain under mandatory evacuation. Firefighters battle the blaze, which officials say was sparked by human activity—though the exact cause remains under investigation. The fire’s still a major threat, with many still displaced.
