Two fires have broken out in Clark County- 1 up in Moapa and 1 in Mount Charleston.
The first fire was caused by a tanker fire truck that caught fire while the crew was cleaning brush. The fire destroyed 4 homes and has burned about 200 acres.

The second fire is up in Mount Charleston and has burned about 10 acres. Authorities say the fire was human caused. My guess is either fireworks or campfire.

Just a warning, the woods are dry in Mount Charleston, even though there is still snow on top of the highest peak. A tiny spark can cause a lot of damage and destroy a lot of beauty. Please, no fireworks and campfire- use common sense.
Think Energy Is Expensive Now? HA!!
