A new fire, the Planet Ranch Fire, broke out near the Colorado River Friday 16 miles southeast of Lake Havasu City. As of Saturday morning it has burned 1,259 acres just east of Highway 95.
It was attacked aggressively Friday by fire engines, 2 single engine air tankers, 2 air tactical aircraft, two Type 1 helicopters, 1 Type 3 helicopter, 2 Type 2IA hand crews, and scooping multi-engine air tankers.
Most of the fire is within the Bill Williams River National Wildlife Refuge.
Highway 95 was closed for an hour or two Friday, but reopened.
Also engaged in the firefighting efforts on the Planet Ranch Fire are the BLM Colorado District and USFWS fire boats (per Wildcad).
