2,000+ acres have burned across Mesa County.

BLM Colorado Fire is currently battling three separate wildfires in remote parts of Mesa County on the Western Slope. The Sieber Fire, Hunter Fire, and Little Bookcliff Fire are thought to have been started by lightning strikes on June 5.

Between the three fires, more than 2,000 acres have burned so far, and crews are making solid progress as of the beginning of this week.

The largest fire, the Sieber Fire burned about 1,100 acres as of the last update. It is now 70 percent contained thanks to the almost 80 firefighters, helicopters, hotshot crews, a fire module, and a BLM engine on hand during the early hours of the blaze.

They have since been able to take several resources off the fire. The Hunter fire has burned around 750 acres so far, and hotshot crews, smokejumpers, and others are on hand securing lines and fighting hot spots in steep and rough terrain. The third fire, the Little Bookcliff, has burned about 170 acres and the 25 firefighters, including a hotshot crew, are securing a perimeter line around the fire.

Heavy rain on the night the fires started gave crews a solid chance to get on top of the fires, and there hasn't been any new growth in any of them since about Sunday.

Colorado BLM Fire is the agency responsible for BLM lands, and it also hosts an interagency hotshot crew. The agency provides education, hazard mitigation, and burned landscape rehabilitation, as well as fire fighting resources.

"During Colorado's fire season, which is typically May through September, BLM resources such as engines and crews are staffed five to seven days a week. Crews are staffed in staggered shifts to provide full-time coverage to respond to wildfires," said BLM.gov.
