Eastern Oregon has been especially hard hit this fire season. As the Cow Valley Fire finally nears containment after spending nearly two weeks as the nation's largest wildfire, a new fire has spread to take it's place nearby.

The Durkee Fire is now more than 173,000 acres, and prompting evacuations in communities nearby. The I-84 was closed for several hours on Monday, and could be closed again according to ODOT, between Baker City and Ontario.
