Spring Lake mountain on fire above my home.

Hi All, So a fire broke out in Spring lake where I live. It is breaking news here in Utah. My mountain is burning. My house is safe but it is still pretty close. There has been 14 home evacuee's and a scout camp of about 450 boys. One of the guys I work with had his house surrounded by this fire but it didn't burn luckily. It was 101 degrees with winds at 25 miles per hour. This fire is still burning as I write this. I am so sad about our mountain it was beautiful.







Little to close to homes








Helicopter trying to put out fire






Our local ABC news is at the lake watching like the rest of us. If you go to www.ksl.com there is a story on this plus about 45 pictures or more.







Here is the helicopter picking up water from SpringLake. You can see Cameron's sign he did for his Eagle Scout project.





This fire is speading like crazy.You can see how close it is to us by seeing my horse in the corner.
