I'm beginning to wonder if there will be any forests left after this year. This fire started today at about 3:30pm in Pacheco Canyon just north of the Santa Fe Ski Basin.

#3. The highest peak on the right is Lake Peak. Santa Fe Baldy is behind the smoke. You can just make out some of the ski runs.

Yikes! You are welcome to have some of our moisture. I've been hiking through deep snow and a rainstorm today.

At 6:00 it was estimated at 200+ acres and growing fast. High winds for tomorrow. No rain in sight. The fire is near the Hyde Park area (campgrounds and an old lodge).
