Having begun on Tuesday, the Lime Gulch Fire gained greater notice as it grew to more than five hundred acres and moved towards homes.
The entire town of Buffalo Park, Colorado was evacuated on Wednesday, as the fire raced towards the town.
Nearby areas were placed on various levels of evacuation, as officials keep an eye on the fire.
Several dozen firefighters and some aircraft have been dispatched to battle the blaze.
Concerns are high that it will continuing moving east and make it over the next crest, if it does that it will likely only pick up speed.
Smoke from the fire is visible all over the Denver metro area, whose suburbs begin only about fifteen miles away from the flames.
