It killed two people, burnt nearly sixteen thousand acres, destroyed five hundred and nine homes, and damaged eighteen more.
All that marked it as the most destructive fire in Colorado history, especially in terms of houses lost.
Cooler weather and rains have helped more than a thousand fire fighters in battling the blaze.
Officials have finally determined where the fire started, and they began their investigation on Tuesday morning.
More and more neighborhoods are being dropped off the mandatory evacuation list as the fire becomes less of a threat.
Hopes are for full containment sometime on Thursday.
