Prescribed burn of 150 acres at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal in Denver, CO. Participating agencies: USFWS, USFS, South Metro Fire, West Metro Fire, Denver Fire, Fairmount Fire.

A dust devil formed and drew the prescribed fire into it. It crossed the line and burned about 1 additional acre.

Having lived in West Texas and seen the wind and the Tumbleweeds.. and living in Arizona and seeing the dust devils and tumbleweeds I am surprised I had not seen similar before.. Rather cool.. and a bit scary.
