Waldo Canyon Fire: A 'Monster'
A firefighting helicopter approaches the Waldo Canyon fire west of Colorado Springs in Colorado, June 26, 2012. A monster Colorado wildfire raging near some of the most visited tourist areas in the state took a turn for the worse last Tuesday as hot winds pushed flames north, prompting the evacuation of 7,000 more people, officials said.
