fire pictures Rabbit Ear Mountains

Here are a few pictures taken by Joe Reeser of Clayton, NM who is a volunteer fire fighter with the Sedan Volunteer Fire Dept. This is a fire which started Saturday evening north of Clayton near Clayton Lake and was driven by high winds Saturday night and Sunday, eventually burning more than 10 thousand acres, including most of the grassland on the Rabbit Ears peaks north of Clayton. With the help of many area fire departments, the blaze is now under control. -
