Early morning fire burns down barn in Black Forest
(BLACK FOREST, Colo.) — Black Forest Fire and Rescue reported that crews from multiple agencies responded to an outbuilding fire a little after midnight on Snow Mass Drive between Black Forest Road and Herring Road, in which a barn burned down in the early morning hours of Saturday, May 17.
According to CSFD, around 12:15 a.m., crews from Black Forest Fire and Rescue, Monument Fire Protection District, Falcon Fire Department, Cimarron Hills Fire Department, and Peyton Fire Protection District responded to the fire after the glow in the sky was visible from Station 2.
When the crews arrived in the area, they searched for the fire and a way to access it. Once they found the correct location, a supply line was laid from the entrance to the driveway. Crews discovered a 40×40 ft. barn fully engulfed in flames, already having collapsed to the ground.
Crews coordinated the water supply utilizing several vehicles and lines to knock down the fire and begin mop-up operations, working for about three hours before finishing.
All people and animals were safely evacuated, and no injuries were reported.
