The Fern Lake Fire, located near Estes Park, Colorado, which started Tuesday, is nearing seven hundred acres.
Difficult terrain has kept ground crews from getting near most of it, and gusty winds have often kept air crews grounded.
When winds allowed, two heavy helicopters were able to drop water, on Thursday.
Friday is expected to see a chance of rain, which could greatly aid the efforts.
No structures are threatened by the fire, but several roads, trails, and the Moraine Park Campground have been closed due to it's proximity.
