Pearl Fire Update

Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests and Pawnee National Grassland <arpfireinfo@usda.gov>

FORT COLLINS, Colo. (Sept. 21, 2024) – The Pearl Fire remains estimated at 128 acres with 75% containment. Containment continues to increase as fire crews are focused on reinforcing control lines, mopping up, and returning disturbed areas to a more natural state.
The weather is expected to remain warm and dry this morning, with cloud cover increasing through the day. Rain and cooler temperatures are expected in the evening with several inches of snow possible by Sunday morning. As conditions become more favorable, the Incident Management Team is beginning to reduce the number of resources assigned to the fire.
When returning to the area, the public is asked to adhere to any forest or road closures and be aware of emergency personnel. To protect public health and safety during an active wildfire, the Forest Service has issued a closure order for the immediate fire area. The Forest Service remains in Stage 1 fire restrictions. Refer to the Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests website for more information.
Larimer County Sheriff’s Office closed the Joint Information Center on Thursday, Sept. 19 and does not plan to reopen. Multiple evacuation orders have been lifted.
