Fire on the Mountain

The Bighorn Fire started from a lightning strike on June 5, and has continued burning, up and over Pusch Ridge and into Pima Canyon.  On Saturday evening, I noticed fire at the top of Pusch Ridge and by Sunday morning, it had formed a crown and started down into Pima Canyon.  Wind is pushing it downhill and east.  Mostly, we can see smoke, lit by the sun at sunrise and sunset, and by the fire at night.  The sun shining through the smoke this morning was beautiful!
