Even with all the recent snow, we're not out of the woods when it comes to fire danger.
The Colorado Springs Fire Department said early Thursday that they were responding to a small yard waste fire at the Valley Hi Golf Course.
"Even with all the recent snow, grasses are still burning," CSFD tweeted.
Area firefighters have long maintained there is no such thing as just a fire season.
"It's a fire year," CSFD told 11 News reporter Jenna Middaugh.
CSFD says even on low fire danger days, there's always a wildfire risk.
“Some of our most detrimental fires have been in our winter months here. Just because we get snow and moisture, it’s followed by these nice, hot sunny days.
