Wallow Fire
Posted By: Congressman Trent Franks on June 10, 2011
The Wallow Fire, already the second most destructive fire in Arizona's history, continues to sear through several mountain communities in the eastern half of our state.
What allegedly started as a small camp fire has scorched approximately 348,000 acres, or 525 square miles, so far. Many evacuees are growing fearful that the tenacious flames will not wane. Over 3,000 fire personnel are on the ground utilizing bulldozers, fire engines and helicopters trying to contain the fire.
Today, as the fire threatens to cross into New Mexico, my prayers go out to the evacuees, their families and those working together to extinguish this menace.
