UPDATE: 37E Fire officials have lifted the voluntary evacuation for residents from Chimney Hollow Road east to County Road 31 and north to Sprague. The 114-acre fire is now 30% contained
The wildfire burning in the area of Blue Mountain in Larimer County has charred 114-acres—not the 300 acres originally estimated. Better aerial mapping provided a more accurate number, the Larimer County Sheriff's Office said.
All residents on Vision Way, Dakota Ridge Road, Chimney Hollow Road, Moss Rock Drive , and those south and east of County Road 37E to the Larimer/Boulder county line are under mandatory evacuation orders, the sheriff's office said. An evacuation center was set up at LifeBridge Christian Church, located at 10345 Ute Highway in Longmont. It closed Friday evening but volunteers will remain on standby if further assistance is needed.
