Colorado wildfire updates: Hundreds of homes evacuated after fire sparks near Jefferson County’s Deer Creek Canyon
Nearly 600 homes in Jefferson County were evacuated overnight Wednesday after a wildfire broke out near Deer Creek Canyon, sheriff’s officials said.
As of 1 a.m. Wednesday, the Quarry fire was burning on 100 acres of Jefferson County land just west of Grizzly Drive and still growing, according to the sheriff’s office. The cause of the fire remains unknown.
Evacuations started just before midnight Tuesday when sheriff’s officials announced mandatory evacuations for the Deer Creek Mesa, Sampson and Maxwell subdivisions southwest of Ken Caryl.
County officials said the fire was discovered by a sheriff’s deputy around 9 p.m. and was moving southeast.
By 1 a.m. Wednesday, 300 homes in the three subdivisions were being evacuated as deputies and firefighters knocked on doors and sent out emergency alerts, sheriff’s officials said.
As the fire continued to grow overnight, sheriff’s officials announced mandatory evacuations for another 275 homes in the McKinney and Murphy subdivisions.
Multiple agencies responded to the late-night blaze, including crews from West Metro Fire Rescue, South Metro Fire Rescue, Inter-Canyon Fire, the North Folk Fire Department and Jefferson County Open Space.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KKTV) – Colorado Springs is one step closer to becoming a CHIPS Zone following the City Council’s approval of a resolution on Monday.
The CHIPS Zone Program was created through Colorado House Bill 23-1260 to maximize incentives available to eligible semiconductor companies in the state. Municipalities, counties, and groups of the two can apply to designate a geographical area within their governance as a CHIPS Zone.
According to the City of Colorado Springs, becoming a CHIPS Zone would allow eligible businesses to apply for state tax income credits for new employees, research and development, investment and more.
The city said this can strengthen local supply chains and keep jobs in Colorado Springs, as well as support the growth of companies involved in semiconductor design, production, and advanced manufacturing.
“I want to thank City Council for advancing this important opportunity for Colorado Springs,” Mayor Yemi Mobolade said.
“With their approval of the proposed CHIPS Zone boundaries, we’re reinforcing our legacy as a high-tech manufacturing hub and accelerating our momentum as ‘Silicon Mountain.’”
The proposal now goes to the Colorado Economic Development Commission for final consideration.
