High Park Fire Photos from the Air National Guard

As firefighters continue to battle the High Park Fire, west of Fort Collins, Colorado, Air National Guard soldiers are documenting the ground and air assault. These photos are from the Colorado National Guard Flickr stream and include images taken by the Nebraska Air National Guard and the Kansas Air National Guard.

Firefighters hope to fully contain the High Park Fire, which has torched 68,440 acres in the mountains west of Fort Collins, on or about July 15. More than 1,800 firefighters are currently fighting the blaze, which is now 60 percent contained, according to the fire incident command website.
