kinda weird all these fires within the same week...if anyone saw anything suspicious, please report

It’s been very hot and very dry. They’re all in the boundary line between prairie heat and foothills vegetation. Under these conditions a spark from a plow or mower blade hitting a rock can last long enough to catch in the high load of dry ground fuel.
All are stated as “human caused” but that only rules out lightning, electrical line sparking and errant embers from other active fires.

Smoke in the air, bro. It’s like sandpaper in your eyes. We’re getting it all up and down the front range.
