BOULDER COUNTY, Colo. — A woman who spread ashes from a fire pit in her garden bed was charged last week with a petty offense for her role in starting a 10-acre wildfire in April.
Twelve people were hurt, Boulder police said. One elderly woman’s clothing badly caught on fire, Kornfeld said, and the group rolled her body to try to put out the flames.
A DIY fire pit kit usually costs between $200 and $400. This will include stones or pavers to build the structure, a steel ring that frames the interior, and lava rocks to line the floor.
The Boulder Office of Disaster Management said any calls regarding the fire should be reached at 303-413-7730. They said do not call 911 unless to report an emergency.
