The Fern Lake Fire has now reached over four hundred acres and is feeding off beetle killed trees.
Sixty-five firefighters battled the blaze, on Wednesday, with double the number expected Thursday.
Hopes are that winds will calm down, allowing for an aerial front.
No preevacuation notices have been given for Estes Park, which is only eight miles away.
Moraine Park Campground, Bear Lake Road, and Upper Beaver Meadows Road are still closed, and all trails west of Bear Lake Road and south of Trail Ridge Road have been added to the closures.
