Warnings of critical fire conditions are peppered across much of the US south-west this weekend, as crews in northern New Mexico worked to stop the growth of the nation’s largest active wildfire.
Two fires that merged to create the largest wildfire in New Mexico history have both been traced to planned burns set by federal forest managers as preventative measures, federal investigators have announced.
The seven-week-old fire has burned 491 sq miles of forest in rugged terrain east of Santa Fe since being started in April by two intentional blazes set by the authorities.
