Smoke is once again visible in Chaffee, Fremont, Custer and Saguache Counties from a fire burning in the San Luis Valley.
The Decker Fire, near the Ox Cart Ranch, is now estimated to be close to 30 acres in size and burning in a wilderness area. No structures are threatened and no injuries have been reported.
The U.S. Forest Service is on the scene and closely monitoring the fire.
