Hayden Pass Fire Now 20 Percent Contained
COALDALE, Colo. (AP) – Firefighters say a wildfire is continuing to burn near Coaldale, where they have it 20 percent contained and are protecting structures.
Incident commanders said Sunday that they are letting the fire burn in a nearby wilderness area because they don’t want to send firefighters into dangerous places.
People began evacuating July 10 after the fire flared up from a lightning strike several days earlier. It has burned 25 square miles.
