The West Fork Complex Fire is considered to be more than seventy-six thousand acres.
It is a combination of the Papoose, Windy Pass, and West Fork Fires.
Nearly nine hundred firefighters and nineteen aircraft are battling the blaze.
Winds have been pushing it along for the last few days.
They are expected to calm on Tuesday, but temperatures will be going up at the same time.
The entire town of South Fork, Colorado remains evacuated due to the threat posed, as well as several camp grounds.
Worries are that Creede and other towns may also have to be evacuated.
So far there is no containment at all.
