Colorado Fire Crisis Escalates | Denver News

Colorado’s wildfire crisis is exploding with over 80,000 acres already burned and conditions worsening—strong winds, dry heat, and zero containment on major blazes like the Snyder Fire, which tragically claimed three firefighters’ lives. With Fourth of July fireworks banned and mandatory evacuations rolling out across Ouray, Custer, and Montezuma counties, officials warn this could be the worst fire day of the week. Stage two restrictions are set to hit the San Juan National Forest July 1st, banning all campfires. A red flag warning blankets western Colorado as fires merge, spread, and officials scramble to protect lives and property.
