    Excellent advice! As a retired firefighter, I fought my share of wildfires, and they can be even more dangerous than structure fires. Myself, along with many others are praying that the Estes Park area finally gets some rain soon! Be safe out there! Lord willing, I will be there August 24th for some epic hikes and photography.

      Hopefully conditions will be much better by late August. We normally get some wetter weather around mid-August.

      I would assume it will be fine, but fires are unpredictable. It could flare up at any time if the winds pick up. Follow the advice in the video and you should be fine.

    ❤Thanks Erik😊. We are 10 miles from the fire. We have the truck loaded and ready to go as soon as we get the voluntary evacuation notice.

    Bro.
    We have the same last name, who are you?

      My family came from the Stensland farm near Tordal, Norway and moved to the US in 1869. My great grandparents (George and Thea) eventually settled in North Dakota near Fairdale.
