More mandatory evacuations lifted in Pearl fire in Larimer County
Larimer County officials lifted more mandatory evacuations in the Pearl fire burning west of Red Feather Lakes on Wednesday.
The 128-acre wildfire that sparked Monday did not grow Tuesday or Wednesday despite high winds in the area, fire officials said in a Wednesday afternoon briefing. It was still 5% contained as of early Wednesday evening.
“It’s been a tough day. The crews have put in a lot of hard work, but things are looking good for now,” Incident Commander Trainee Ty Gripp said Wednesday.
