- Mandatory evacuations issued for Elk Fire burning in northern Hinsdale County
Mandatory evacuations have been issued for parts of northern Hinsdale County due to the 574.4-acre Elk Fire burning on U.S. Forest Service land. The fire, which began on July 9 in remote terrain, is being managed with indirect suppression tactics due to inaccessibility, and zones HNS-E002 and HNS-E005 are under evacuation orders. Road closures and traffic advisories are in effect near the fire.
