Smoke is once again billowing across the northern Front Range as the Fern Lake Fire burning in Rocky Mountain National Park intensifies.

Trail Ridge Road in Rocky Mountain National Park has been closed for much of the last week due to consistent winter conditions, high winds and below freezing temperatures. Officials closed the road for the season Wednesday, Oct. 17.
