A large Utah wildfire kept emergency responders from safely reaching the remote site of a helicopter crash Saturday as other fires burned across several Western states, including one that closed part of Mount Rainier National Park.
The Friday morning crash of a Sikorsky Skycrane helicopter in the Fishlake National Forest ignited a new fire that spread to connect with the existing blaze that has now scorched nearly 174 square miles.
The National Transportation Safety Board will investigate the helicopter crash once its team can examine the wreckage.
And north of the border in British Columbia, more than 20,000 people had to evacuate ahead of another fast-moving wildfire.
