Remember, only you can prevent forest fires

One of two forest fires burning in New Mexico is at Capitan Peak, the mountain where Smokey Bear “was found as a fire-orphaned cub clinging to a smoldering tree trunk” in May 1950.

The second and larger of the two New Mexico fires appears to have been started by a campfire in an area where campfires are currently banned.
