The Bee Hive wildfire is located in Montrose County to the north-northeast of Bedrock and Paradox. With high winds and dry conditions it has grown rapidly Monday afternoon to approximately 500 acres at 6pm MDT. Fortunately for air quality, the smoke is lofting well and the fire is in a rather remote area. So major public health impacts are not anticipated at this time. However, smoke may be visible along both County Road 90 and 141 in the area.
