In a bit of good news, many of the areas in Grand County that have been evacuated since October 20th due to the East Troublesome Fire are expected to be reopened as early as today.
Smoke was so thick, the firefighter said it was 'pitch black' in the canyon between Loveland and Estes Park, even though the video was taken at 2:38 p.m.
It has been more 70 days since the Cameron Peak fire ignited on the Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests near Cameron Pass and Chambers Lake on August 13.
