Downpour Over Burn Scar Floods County Roads

Muddy ash from the Eight Mile wildfire burn scar pours across Fremont County Road 132 northeast of the Fremont County Airport on the evening of July 29th

A late afternoon downpour in the Penrose area also hit the burn scar of the Eight Mile wildfire that burnt over 500 acres in June.   Black ash from the burn scar seven miles north into Phantom Canyon is seen flooding its way across Eight Mile Creek. County road crews spent the next couple of days repairing flash flood damage on CR 132
