Reporter on the verge of tears, Candace Stewart tried to keep it we got 4 dogs and 2 cats out. Reporter there was no time to load up their three horses. I dont want to talk about it. Reporter in this peaceful canyon northwest of fort collins the beauty is disrupted by a thick smoke eclipsing the sun on a day that would otherwise be perfect. More than 60 firefighters are on the ground. We are on the edge of the fire. Candace hope. Its unclear how these roadblocks will remain in place as ground crews and their support continue to try to contain the blaze. That was not the only major fire that burned today across the area. Crews around the Eastern Plains were able to get this 200 acre fire under control in
