Occurred on July 4, 2018 / Basalt, Colorado, USA
Info from Licensor: "The Basalt Mountain Fire was allegedly started by two young guys at the gun range. We’ve had no rain here for months following the driest winter in decades. The gun range should have been closed but wasn’t and these two idiots decided to use tracer bullets and the fire started. It spread over the night and seemed contained in the morning but that was just an illusion. I came home during the afternoon of July 4th and the whole mountain was on fire. The fire went from 60 acres to over 2000 tonight. It’s getting worse not better. The winds are raging right now. The valley is ablaze ."
