Colorado Springs Firefighters have been deployed to assist our neighbors in Durango and Beulah with active wildfires. A team of three in a brush truck is in Durango working multiple fires there. A team of four, a Task Force Leader, and an Agency Representative are engaged in the Aspen Acres Fire in Beulah.
This is what mutual aid looks like. When our neighboring communities need help, firefighters answer the call.
But we need YOUR help.
Wildfires aren't just burning in Colorado. Hundreds of thousands of acres are burning across Utah, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, and Wyoming, stretching resources thin. Thousands of firefighters, engines, aircraft, and other resources are already committed across the West, and the demand only continues to grow.
That means if a preventable wildfire starts here, there may not be another engine, crew, or aircraft just waiting to respond from area departments. And while our crews being deployed does not impact our response here, fires get out of hand quickly and can get to a point where we need help.
Every spark matters. Every decision matters. Help us keep our community safe.
