Firefighters are working across Colorado to protect communities and infrastructure as multiple major wildfires continue burning. Denver7 has been tracking the state's four largest wildfires of 2026 —

Colorado’s six large, active fires have together consumed more than 211,000 acres, or 330 square miles, and forced thousands of evacuations.

A wildfire burning in Colorado has surpassed 91,000 acres, pushing it into the ranks of the largest wildfires ever recorded in the state. The fire’s rapid growth has forced officials to reconcile real-time acreage figures against historical records maintained by federal agencies.

Thousands of firefighters continue to battle multiple large wildfires in Colorado. The Aspen Acres fire, southwest of Pueblo, has reached 96,089 acres. The fire is at 14% containment, a number that has not changed much since the weekend.

Two of the wildfires burning in Colorado are among the 10 largest in the state's history.

The Aspen Acres Fire and the Snyder Mesa Fire have each burned more than 20,000 acres in Colorado as multiple wildfires are active across the state.

One of those fires, nicknamed the Green Ridge Fire, has burned 44 acres so far, and there are currently evacuations in place.

The Ferris Fire is the second Colorado wildfire this summer to join the list of the 10 largest wildfires in state history.

Wildfires continue to burn across Colorado, with several smaller fires becoming increasingly contained while larger fires are still growing, with over 100,000 acres burned.

Mandatory evacuations were lifted Tuesday as crews gained containment on the Green Ridge fire burning near Steamboat Springs, according to Routt County officials.
