US: Monroe Canyon Fire Grows to 20,000 Acres, Prompts Evacuations in Utah
The Monroe Canyon Fire in Sevier County, Utah, has burned over 20,000 acres since July 13 and is just 13% contained as of Sunday, July 27.
Evacuations have been ordered for several mountain communities, including Long Flat, Deep Lake, and Elk Country Cabins. Firefighters are battling tough conditions with high winds, dry fuels, and steep terrain.
Nearly 1,000 personnel are on scene, and officials say parts of the fire remain “dicey” due to spot fires and fatigue among crews.
