Just before dusk on June 28, 2013, a bolt of lightning ignited a wildfire near Yarnell, Arizona. Strong wind gusts met with an already extremely dry climate, and the fire grew from 300 acres to over 2,000 in a matter of hours. Nearby towns were evacuated. Hundreds of firefighters were called into action, including 20 from the Granite Mountain Hotshots.
