## Resource

Bear Fire in New Mexico’s Gila National Forest is a relentless battle—sparked by lightning on June 9th and now 35% contained as of June 16th. Firefighters are holding the line near Quemado, protecting critical spots like Mangas Fire Lookout, while battling rising temps and low humidity that threaten their progress. Homes are at risk, with “Ready, Set, Go!” evacuation alerts in place for areas east of the blaze. Smoke is spreading, so check air quality before heading out. The region’s under Stage One fire restrictions—no open burns, campfires only in designated areas—and a temporary flight ban is in effect, with unauthorized drones risking critical aerial firefighting. This is a high-stakes, fast-changing situation where every minute counts. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
