The Skeleton Fire near Black Canyon City has grown. The blaze has consumed nearly 21,000 acres of grass and brush. Luckily, the Skeleton Fire is burning in a remote area of the Agua Fria National Monument. More than 100 personnel are battling the fire, which began last Saturday from a lightning strike.
The fire is zero-percent contained.
