This could be trouble if it spreads. I don't believe there are any lifts or equipment on Peak-2 but someone who knows more can say for sure.

Breckenridge sits on peaks 6-10 but there may be homes near the area.

The fire is approximately two miles north of the Peak 7 neighbourhood, which has been evacuated. So far the winds have been kind and turned the fire back on itself.

Good news indeed. Sadly another fire has started on the east side of Breck up on Mt. Baldy. I help work on a ham radio repeater site up there from time to time, but thankfully it's up above timberline, however the old antique power lines that go up to that site are not. The site is partially powered by solar so that should get us by for now if we loose power. Brian Head is doing well too.
