Nearly 500 residences remained under evacuation on Thursday after the spread of the Peak 2 Fire in Summit County. No highways are closed, but police and deputies from the Summit County Sheriff's Office have been patrolling the Peak 7 neighborhood to tell residents about the evacuation order. Checkpoints are in place at Ski Hill Road at the Peaks Trail and on Barton Road where it meets Airport Road. “I know this is a very difficult time for everyone in Summit County. Wildfires are one of the biggest threats our community faces, and incidents like this are extremely frightening," Summit County Commissioner Dan Gibbs said.
