35 Major Fires in Western U.S.

   Althought the Ramsey Fire in Ebbetts Pass has been contained, just a few moments ago on one of the national cable channels, a map was shown with a flame designating each fire that is burning in the western United States. It was horrifying. There are 35 currently.

  So far this year, 6.75 million acres have burned. And we are just now coming into the fire season of the year.
