Frijoles Fire Rages On With 9% Containment | Santa Fe News

The Frijoles Fire rages on in northern New Mexico, now scorching over 11,300 acres with just 9% containment—thanks to dry conditions and rugged terrain pushing it northeast into the Pecos Wilderness. More than 650 firefighters are battling the blaze, focusing on containment lines near Cañon Navajo and Rio Frijoles, while protecting homes in Cundiyo and Gorham Scout Ranch. Unfavorable weather, with little rain and dry air, complicates efforts. A community meeting is set for Tuesday at 6 PM at the Santa Fe Convention Center to update residents and answer questions. The situation remains critical as crews fight an uphill battle against the flames. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
