Update on the fire that is being managed for habitat resource benefit.

#SteamboatMesa fire near the UT border, was reported on July 18th at approximately 4:00 p.m. approximately 3.5 miles northwest of Gateway, CO. Yesterday’s fire growth was predominately wind driven necessitating the use of air and ground resources. Fire crews worked into the night establishing and anchor point and constructing fireline. Today’s resources include a type 3 helicopter, engine crew personnel, smokejumpers and a wildland fire module. Continued hot and dry conditions are expected to be present today with gusty and erratic winds near thunderstorms. The fire is estimated to be 8 acres in size with an estimated containment date of 7/21. #FireYear2022 #FireUpdate
