Meanwhile, the Gold Mountain fire near Ouray remains only 5% contained amid scorching conditions, while the Ferris fire, sparked by lightning, is 23% contained with evacuations still active in key zones. The Willow fire near Leadville is gaining ground at 25% containment. Across the state, air quality warnings remain in effect as firefighters battle relentless heat and dryness.
