It's been more than two months since a fire ripped through a cabin near Tamarack Resort that killed four people, including two adults and two children. On Thursday, the Idaho state fire marshal, Knute Sandahl, announced in a press conference that the fire started when one of the adults attempted to start a fire in a propane-fueled fireplace at the cabin. A valve releasing the propane was opened, but when the person used a piece of paper to light the fire, the fireplace exploded.
