Fire as of 10.24.20 is now on the western edge of the Town of Estes Park and approaching the Bear Lake Road in RMNP. H E R E - Update is an update, this is now a national news story. All of Estes Park now under mandatory evacuation, and areas south along CO 7 from Lily Lake to Allenspark are now under evac orders.
Two deaths have now been reported as of last night's news broadcasts. An elderly couple refused to evacuate the home in Grand Lake that had been in their family for generations, and they tried to shelter in a concrete bunker on the property. The house was destroyed and they did not survive in the bunker. This is such a devastatingly sad report.
