Rio Blanco County Fire Growing

A wildfire in Rio Blanco county has grown to nearly 1,900 acres. The Hunt fire was just a few acres yesterday, but is burning in thick brush and downed trees, making it difficult for firefighters to engage.

The fire is burning about 25 miles southwest of Meeker. The BLM and other agencies are marshalling air power today. Officials believe the fire was caused by lightning.
