ResponseThe City of Boulder assisted on the Overland Fire in October of 2003. This was the largest wildfire in Boulder Counties history (without knowledge of historical fires) at 3869 acres. City firefighters protected homes in Jamestown and provided safety, operations and other expertise to the incident. The first image (courtesy Boulder Rural FD), shows a portion of the Overland Fire as it becomes a crown fire (spreading from treetops, with 100-150 foot flames). The second photo shows the remains of one of the homes destroyed in the fire.
