The Lee Fire near Meeker is now over 113,000 acres, fire maps show, and has surpassed the Spring Creek Fire of 2018 as the state's fifth-largest wildfire. Here are the four largest fires in the state's history.

New mandatory evacuations were ordered in the Lee fire late Friday night and early Saturday morning as the blaze grew nearly 30,000 acres on Colorado’s Western Slope near Meeker.

One of the fires burning now more than 100,000 acres in Rio Blanco County in northwest Colorado continues to grow during ongoing "near-critical fire weather" conditions.
